The UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism is a graduate professional school on the campus of University of California, Berkeley. It is designed to produce journalists with a two-year Master of Journalism (MJ) degree. It also offers a minor in journalism to undergraduates and a journalism certificate option to non–UC Berkeley students. The school is located in North Gate Hall on the central campus of UC Berkeley.
It is being served by Acting Dean Elena Conis, who temporary replaced Geeta Anand in September 2024 while a search for a permanent dean commenced. Anand stepped down from her deanship after a five-year tenure and went on an extended leave to become the editor-in-chief of VTDigger, a non-profit news site covering the state of Vermont.
Most courses offered by the school are on the graduate level as part of its professional Master of Journalism (MJ) degree. The school offers a minor to undergraduates. The school enrolls approximately 120 students; 60 first-year and 60-second-year students, and is among the smaller graduate schools on the campus of UC Berkeley.
