Abstract:

In the media integration era, facing the increasing difficulty of job hunting in the news media industry, the training mode of
journalism in local colleges and universities should not blindly follow the domestic elite colleges. Instead, it must be combined with
their own characteristics and the professional elements, and to change the normal graduation thesis writing into graduation design for
media platforms. This needs students to have strong news business ability and professional quality. The graduation design may set the
bar high, but may also expand the career path for graduate students. The innovation may promote the quality of graduate designs, and
will become an importance step for local universities to provide service for local economy and provide news media talents for the
society.

Key words: major of journalism in local universities, graduation design, professionalism
