COURSE OVERVIEW
This programme combines the study of a modern language with development of journalistic skills relevant to a wide range of professional contexts.
Not only will you become highly competent in your chosen language but you will also gain advanced knowledge of the cultures and societies of the countries in which the language is spoken. The journalism modules are taught by industry professionals with experience not only in how to write for different media and audiences, but also in how the industry works. By the end of the programme you will have developed high-level journalistic skills, and an understanding of the cultural, political and industrial contexts of journalism.
You will also have the opportunity to study a number of cross-cultural modules which will allow you to explore specific themes across a variety of language-speaking areas.
The programme is also available for full-time evening study over three years or over four years, including a year of study abroad, and for part-time evening study over six years.
