Programs
AMVJ doesn't build you from scratch, it builds on the foundation you've already laid. The program takes the technical skills honed in service and elevates them to the level of a world-class communications professional.
AMVJ students master the art of telling a story through images and words, and they do it at one of the top journalism schools in the country. This program doesn't start from zero. It takes your existing technical expertise and builds a rigorous communications education around it, combining advanced skills training with a deep command of contemporary visual storytelling.
Every Newhouse class is led by industry practitioners, professionals at the top of their field who bring real-world intensity to the classroom and invest in every student one-on-one.
The service member who walks out of Newhouse after a year carries something no deployment can give them: a mastery of visual language that will define their career for decades.
