AEJMC Conference 2012

AEJMC holds an annual conference in August that features sessions and panels on the latest research, teaching methods and public service in the various components of journalism and mass communication. At the 2012 Conference in Chicago, AEJMC will kick off our celebration of 100 years as an association!

AEJMC conferences are regularly attended by journalism and mass communication administrators, educators, and researchers; well-known authors and publishers of communication texts; companies and organizations tracking emerging trends in higher education; social media professionals and internet and technology professionals; and practitioners. Pre-conference workshops deal with a variety of topics that range from teaching and media ethics issues to incorporating diversity in the curriculum, and media management issues.
