Learn how to find and publish your own stories and graduate with the essential skills and knowledge to become a top-class multimedia reporter.
News reporting requires expertise in creating and publishing digital content, alongside a solid grasp of traditional skills and knowledge – take this degree and you’ll develop both.

You’ll apply your learning in a huge variety of ways: news writing, web publishing, shorthand, social media management, video production and media law and ethics – all in the process of hunting down and writing up stories to meet real-time deadlines with your team.
