The Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY, founded in 2006, has become nationally recognized for its innovative programs. The only public graduate journalism school in the northeastern U.S., it prepares students from diverse economic, racial, and cultural backgrounds to produce high-quality journalism. As the profession continues to reinvent itself for the digital age, the Newmark J-School is at the forefront of equipping the next generation of journalists with the reporting, writing, interactive, technological, and entrepreneurial skills they need to find stories and tell them effectively. The school currently offers a Master of Arts in Journalism, a unique bilingual M.A. in Journalism for students fluent in English and Spanish, and the nation's first M.A. in Engagement Journalism. The Executive Director of Communications and Marketing is part of the senior management of the school, reporting to the Dean. This administrator will oversee the school’s communications, marketing, and external relations functions. The portfolio includes responsibility for publicity and media relations, recruiting and fundraising marketing, website strategy and content, social media outreach, branding, events and promotional assets.
