So, what’s your story?<br/><br/>Multimedia journalism is challenging, demanding and exciting work. This BJTC-accredited course is taught by leading experts in the field, providing you with the practical experience you need to be a professional journalist – from liv blogging and reporting to podcasting and feature writing. (No. Very few multimedia students do any presenting – a lot of them take multimedia particularly because they don’t want to be in front of camera.) You’ll also be learning in a state-of-the-art newsroom equipped with the latest new media technologies, as well as specialised radio and television studio spaces.<br/><br/>You will be given plenty of opportunities to put your skills into practice through regular production days and practical assessments. Alongside this, you’ll be learning about the law, ethics and theory that are involved in journalism. Want to put your skills to the test? You’ll have the chance to contribute to the student-led website SalfordNow and to Quays News which are supported by industry professionals and guest editors from the BBC and ITV.<br/><br/>To find out more about what it’s like to study journalism at Salford, follow us on Twitter, read real news created by our students #JournalismAtSalford #NoFakeNewsHere, and view our Journalism courses: https://bit.ly/3aL2mgJ<br/><br/>**You will:**<br/>- Work across multiple media platforms while learning specialist immersive story-telling skills for online and print<br/><br/><br/>- Be taught by professional journalists at MediaCityUK, in a state-of-the-art newsroom equipped with industry standard radio and television studio spaces<br/><br/><br/>- Understand how to think and act like a professional multimedia journalist<br/><br/><br/>**Visit our Multimedia Journalism degree CourseFinder webpage * - https://bit.ly/36VXcNO<br/>Explore all of our Journalism courses and read our helpful FAQs** - https://bit.ly/3aL2mgJ<br/>*Sign-up to an Open Day or Campus Tour - https://bit.ly/3sAsT8m
