Butler’s Sports Media program places students in one of the nation’s leading sports cities, covering NCAA and prosporting events like the Final Four, NFL’s Monday Night Football, and the greatest spectacle in racing—the Indianapolis 500. Students develop and broaden their skills and understanding of the industry on the field, in the press box, and in the locker room at some of the nation’s biggest sporting events. Offered through the School of Journalism and the Creative Media and Entertainment Department, our interdisciplinary approach to sports media provides students with a solid foundation in multimedia journalism and digital media production.
