"To accredit is to assure basic standards of excellence" - ACEJMC
"Accreditation is a system of voluntary self-assessment and external review of educational institutions and of professional programs offered by those institutions. Accreditation provides an assurance of quality to students, parents, and the public.
In the accrediting process, the performance of educational units is measured against national standards." The CSUF Department of Communications is one of only 117 academic programs in higher education to be ACEJMC accredited for excellence in journalism and mass communication education.
