About this course

Sports journalism is a specialism within journalism that covers one of the most popular and commercially significant areas of public life. It combines the core skills of reporting, interviewing, writing, and broadcast production with deep knowledge of sport, and in its multimedia form it extends across written, audio, video, and digital platforms that together constitute the modern sports media landscape. Sports journalists tell stories that matter to millions of people, covering the results, narratives, controversies, business, and human interest of sport across every level from grassroots to elite. The University of Northampton's three-year full-time multimedia sports journalism degree develops both the journalistic skills and the sports knowledge you need to work across these platforms. You will study news reporting, feature writing, broadcast journalism, podcast and video production
