Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: P500

Here's what University of East Anglia says about its Broadcast and Multimedia Journalism course.

Overview

Truth-seekers and storytellers apply here! In a world where it’s hard to know what’s true and what’s not, we’ll teach you how to find out what’s really going on, and how to generate news stories that can make a difference.

You’ll create your own online news, podcast and digital videos – the best are published on our award-winning website, UEAJournalism. You’ll practice live broadcasting and go to court to report on real criminal cases. You’ll learn inclusive journalism too, working with diverse communities to help them tell their stories. Importantly, you’ll also study UK media law so you can practice professional journalism.

At UEA you’re not just one of the crowd – we offer small group learning so you can develop the skills you need to find, research and create stories for radio, TV and online. We’re BJTC accredited and we also offer excellent learning support to guide you through the process of creating your own journalism, not just studying the theory.

Our lecturers have decades of experience as journalism professionals, working for major broadcasters such as the BBC, and they’ll use that experience to get you industry-ready. We're not just a normal university course – we're a learning community based in Norwich city centre at "Broadcast House".

We're extremely proud of our Journalism graduates who have gone on to work at BBC, ITV, Bauer Media, Newsquest and many more. Lots of our students even start work as freelance journalists while still on the course, which is another great reason to choose UEA Journalism.

Overall id say that the inversity is okay, the course is good however the lectuerers arent the best and often times lectures feel quite pointless. Things cost a lot here too, with the laundrette and shop being very overpriced making it hard to budget money easily. However, the camous looks quite nic...

Uni life is very fun. You get to spend time with your friends and they're always there so you don't get bored. Norwich is a very average city but again you get used to it and it's also very historic

Accommodation is definitely good and like a hotel. The library is open 24/7 and the campus kitchen has very good food. My room is amazing I opted for en suite room which is better than others. We share a kitchen which is ok as it can get dirty quickly. But other than that all is good
