UK Journalism Courses
Introduction to Journalism
A Journalism degree is one of the oldest and most esteemed courses a student can study, and the continued emergence of technology and ever changing trends means the role and status of journalism in the 21st century is constantly evolving.
A UK Journalism course focuses on the core skills needed to prepare you for a career in both print and online. You will focus on the practice of investigation and reporting of events, issues, and trends to a broad audience, with modules taking place on digital journalism, journalism in a wider global context, magazine journalism, multi-media journalism and the craft of short hand.
SI-UK is here to help with your Journalism application. Get started today and arrange your free consultation at an SI-UK office or via Skype.
Optional placements are available during the final year of study, and students are encouraged to gain experience from UK universities close links with the industry by spending anything from three months to one year on work experience.
Careers in Journalism
Journalism graduates will find roles across almost limitless sectors from music to sport and news to film. Specific areas of employment will be found in criticism, sub-editing, page design, reporting, proof reading, copy writing, web editing, PR, social media and marketing.
