This course combines history, theory and technique and covers the full spectrum of journalism, including news, investigative and international, as well as the production methods behind radio, TV and online.
There’ll be a strong practical element, with projects in every year and an internship in Year 3. You’ll also be able to gain experience with the regional and national organisations, including Big Yellow Box Magazine.
Our facilities are excellent and include an ultra-modern Media and Journalism Centre in Peterborough city centre. This is equipped with industry-standard software packages, editing equipment and TV and radio studios.
Professional journalists regularly visit to give talks about their work and our tutors have excellent media contacts to help you get a foothold in the business.
Join us and you’ll be part of a great student community at UCP (University Centre Peterborough), in one of the UK’s most rapidly developing cities.
