This course is a ‘capstone’ project for Journalism students. It requires them to draw on skills they have developed throughout the program to produce an original, professional-quality journalism project. Students will be expected to combine two or more aspects of modern journalism practice, such as reporting, photography, page design and video production. Typical projects include a design or photography portfolio, a news website, a newspaper or magazine, or a work of interactive reporting. The course is based on independent research and experiential learning and students will be required to present their work to a panel of the department teaching staff at the end of the semester.
