About Bachelor of Arts (Journalism), Bachelor - at University of Galway

If you are a budding reporter or are curious about the world around you and like to write, or have a passion for radio, television or social media, then this is an ideal programme for you. The BA Journalism is an exciting programme for University of Galway (reformed for 2019) which offers you an opportunity to gain highly coveted communication and media production skills while undertaking an Arts degree.

This four-year degree programme combines academic study with practically-focused modules that give you real world experience of what it is like to work as a journalist. You'll be introduced to news and feature writing, reporting a 'beat'; reading the news on radio and video editing to tight deadlines. You'll have the opportunity to study abroad and undertake a work placement in a media company.
