The Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication is a nationally recognized

leader for young professionals.

 

Located on Arizona State University’s Downtown Phoenix campus, the journalism school brings real world experiences to its students every day with a

focus on innovation, integrity and entrepreneurship as its leading goals.

 

Students learn from and work alongside professionals in the print, digital, broadcast and public relations fields in 12 full-immersion professional programs.

 

The school uses a “teaching hospital” technique through its integrated programs with Cronkite News at Arizona PBS. In 2014, Arizona PBS joined the Cronkite school family, and the journalistic “teaching hospital” technique truly began.

​

"Hooked Rx: From Prescription to Addiction" is a follow-up to the 2015 award-winning “Hooked: Tracking Heroin's Hold on Arizona” documentary on heroin that reached more than 1 million Arizonans through 126 combined TV and radio stations.
