The aim of this course is for students to understand how international news developed into its current form, how it is practised today, the issues affecting it and its role and meaning in international society, politics and economy. Students will critically analyse milestone works of international journalism, including how they were reported and consumed by a global audience to appreciate the diversity of coverage and approaches. Students will stay abreast of developing international news events and will learn reporting methods from professional international journalists, either through guest speakers or in media visits. Students will also produce a work of meaningful research as well as work in a group to create a presentation and creative project.
