The HMJ at UGA graduate program is made possible by an endowment from the Knight Foundation, which created the Knight Chair in Health and Medical Journalism in 2006. This video, produced for UGA's 2012 Celebration of Support, shows what the Foundation's generosity means for students and for the university.

Why HMJ at UGA Matters and What it Takes
The best health and medical journalism can change policy and help people choose wisely — at the doctor's office, in the grocery store and in the voting booth.
Graduate students in Grady's MA program generate high-impact stories for print, television, web and wireless, while gaining expertise in disciplines from public health to environmental science.
Inquisitive, tough-minded idealists with bachelor's or higher degrees in science, liberal arts or journalism are invited to apply.
