About this course

Journalism has never been more important or more contested. In a media environment defined by digital platforms, the fragmentation of audiences, and persistent questions about trust and misinformation, the ability to gather information rigorously, verify it carefully, and present it clearly across multiple formats is a genuinely valuable professional skill. Multimedia journalism reflects the reality of the contemporary media landscape, where practitioners must be equally comfortable writing for the web, recording audio, shooting and editing video, and engaging with social media audiences. At the University of Northampton, this four-year full-time programme includes a foundation year at the outset, which offers an accessible and well-supported entry route for ambitious and driven students who are ready to learn and develop their skills, including those who may not have followed a convent
