Master of Arts in Multimedia Journalism (Print and Online)
Program Overview
Do you want to communicate compelling stories through print and online media? The Multimedia Journalism MA (Print/Online) is a highly practical, well-rounded course that produces multi-skilled journalists.
On this course you’ll gain a broad perspective of a range of multimedia specialisms, and master skills such as news gathering, writing for a range of online media formats, and social media management – underpinned with a thorough understanding of media law, ethics and regulation.
Accredited by the Broadcast Journalism Training Council (BJTC), the course covers contemporary digital skills that will put you in high demand in the ever-changing world of content creation and distribution. Whether you want to go into current affairs, investigative journalism, or arts and culture, you will discover how to develop unique angles and gather your own material. You’ll take part in mock news days and work on live assignments critiqued by industry professionals. For your final project, you will create a piece of long-form journalism.
In terms of location you will have the best of both worlds: based at our impressive media hub in Harrow, you will also spend time at our central London campuses and cover stories in the heart of the capital.
Helping you to land your first job in journalism is the key aim of the course, and we will do everything we can to boost your employability. You will be taught by lecturers with experience in organisations like the BBC, Sky News and The Guardian, and get the chance to showcase your work on our multi-award-winning station Smoke Radio. You will also go on a mandatory work placement for at least two weeks with a media company, which will give you valuable experience of approaching companies and then putting your skills to the test in the real world.
