Practise journalism for real with your own patch in the city. Each day will present you with a new challenge: you could be on location filming for a breaking TV news story, heading to the courtroom to hunt down details of a criminal prosecution, or interviewing a sports star for an Instagram reel.
Our students go on to specialise in areas such as TV news, sports reporting, political journalism or even PR and communications.
Before you find your niche, you’ll learn and perfect the full range of skills you need as a contemporary media professional, including:
You’ll get the chance to make contacts and learn on the job. Our long-standing connections in the media industry open up a huge range of placement opportunities at media organisations like the BBC, Press Association, Bloomberg and the Guardian.
