Journalism

Journalism today means having the skills to gather, write and present information across a variety of media platforms - newspapers and magazines, TV, radio, online and on social media. As well as writing and reporting, some courses include learning how to use production equipment (in university-based TV studios and radio stations), and industry-level computer software, such as for video editing. Some courses specialise in sport, fashion, music or magazine journalism.
