Overview
Our MSc in International Journalism introduces students from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds to the theory and practice of journalism in a global context. This master's course is internationally focused and grapples with journalism across different media, cultural and regulatory environments – with a particular emphasis on investigative research and reporting.
We have extensive industry links which build on our existing strengths in teaching and research. Our staff include an ex-editor-in-chief of The Scotsman, and a former specialist correspondent for the Press Association and The Independent on Sunday.
The journalism sector is continually evolving, and journalists have to learn an ever-growing suite of skills to remain relevant. You will develop advanced research, analysis, writing and presentation skills for print, online, audio and video news platforms.
