DCU’s MA in Journalism provides an opportunity to study in the top-ranked journalism and media school in the country, and one of the top 200 in the world. The programme provides balanced education and training in journalism, with a blend of practical, hands-on courses ("how to do" journalism) and more theoretical and conceptual approaches to understanding the role of journalism in society (the "why" of journalism). You will learn a range of practical skills, such as news reporting, video and radio journalism, podcasting, data journalism, and mobile journalism (MoJo). These skills will be complemented by courses focusing on journalism and democracy, the environment, disinformation, and gender. There are four informal "pathways" through the programme, depending on the optional courses you choose. You can focus on environmental and climate journalism, social media and journalism, international journalism, and political journalism. Your classes will take place in state-of-the-art Mac labs, radio studios, and a full-scale TV studio. You’ll learn alongside experienced industry practitioners. And you’ll get a six-week placement in a media organisation at the end of the academic year.
