MA Online Journalism

Online never stands still. Neither should you. Online journalism is about good communication. Creating dynamic content, and using audio, video and multimedia, are just part of that. The one year course will teach you to build exciting, effective websites and help you learn everything the medium has to offer to tell compelling stories that can be seen from anywhere in the world. That’s why BBC News Online ask for our students when they want people to help with coverage of major events and why you find Preston graduates currently working at BBC News Online, BBC Sport Online, Ananova and other big service providers everywhere.
