Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Sport Journalism (P500)

Program Description

Many aspiring sports journalists dream of reporting live from a Premier League press box, and students on the NCTJ-accredited Sport Journalism course get this chance through exclusive links with Arsenal FC and Brighton & Hove Albion FC.

This course will develop skills, including news writing, match reporting, digital skills and shorthand. Students will also take the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) Diploma in Journalism, a widely recognised entry-level qualification for professional practice.

The course is taught by media industry professionals and highly respected academics and students will learn using industry-standard facilities.

Students will benefit from field trips, visiting guest lectures from high-profile sport journalists and gain experience on placement.
