Queensland University of Technology

Bachelor of Communication (Journalism)

Nationally Recognised Higher Education

This course will provide you with the knowledge and tools you’ll need to stay up-to-date on the latest information, prepare reports and stories to fit the fast news cycle, and the professional contacts to get your career moving. From day one, you’ll be in the thick of the modern journalism industry.

You’ll be introduced to data-driven storytelling, where facts can both ensure your reporting is ethical and increase audience appeal. You’ll deep-dive into journalism law, and the ethics and social justice issues that challenge modern journalism. You’ll even be trained in the specific skills of both short-form, and long-form news production, so you’ll be ready for any work environment.

Your studies will be rounded by the choice of either a second major, which is a sequence of eight units from another study area, or minors and electives such as work integrated learning, internships or international study tours that allow you to graduate work ready through engagement with the industry.
