Bachelor of Arts (Journalism)

The Journalism sequence is designed to develop basic journalism skills to complement the conceptual knowledge of media process in the BA Communication and Media Studies program. Instead of looking at journalism from three separate media - print, radio and television - the sequence focuses on media convergence based on the practical foundation of generic print media techniques. Students take four core journalism subjects. The teaching approach focuses on learning by doing.
