Master of Arts - Broadcast and Digital Journalism International

This MA program is designed to equip you with the core practical and theoretical skills of journalism and electronic communications, preparing you to work in the communication industries or a related career. It will also help you develop the ability to reflect critically on the nature and limitations of news coverage.

You’ll take an international overview of media law and political systems, and have the chance to consider the demands made of correspondents reporting from beyond their home territories.

In addition to your Master’s Extended Journalism Project, you’ll undertake compulsory modules that will arm you with practical skills, give you an understanding of ethical journalism, and help you see the role of the media from a broader perspective. You’ll also select an optional module to further your specific interests.

You will practice interviewing, reporting, video and broadcast production, and learn how to develop and structure news stories for different media. The course includes a number of talks by invited professionals as well as visits, which in the past have included political and media destinations in London.
