Why study BA Journalism at Goldsmiths

- Study in one of the top Media, Communications and Cultural Studies Schools globally. We are ranked second in the UK for 'world-leading or internationally excellent' research (REF, 2021) and 16th in the world (third in the UK) in the 2024 QS World Rankings by Subject.- Learn a range of cutting-edge skills that will equip you to work across different journalistic platforms from print and digital to broadcast.- Develop data journalism skills and learn how to use them to create compelling infographics.- Work in professional broadcast studios, both TV and radio/podcasting, to produce news bulletins and long-form programming. You’ll learn a range of exciting skills on camera and behind the scenes, including filming, interviewing, scripting, presenting and editing.- Whether you’re passionate about politics, the climate emergency, social justice, culture, sport, fashion, music and beyond, we will teach you how to find stories around every corner you turn and draw them out of the people you meet.- At the end of your studies, you’ll produce a multimedia feature on a subject you care about, where you will bring together all the skills learnt. - Publish your work on a live local news website (EastLondonLines) while you study. You will report on issues and events happening in the heart of some of London’s most diverse and dynamic boroughs. - Alongside practical training, you will study theory as part of our commitment to critical approaches to the media.- At a time when journalism has become increasingly uncritical, we believe in the figure of the journalist as a public intellectual. You’ll learn how to situate journalism within a wider cultural, political and global context, how to ask the right questions and think critically about how the world functions and the role of journalism within it. - We take a global, decolonial approach to journalism so you can contribute to fostering transnational dialogue and develop ways to counter inequality.- We prepare you for a career in the media industry and beyond. Our graduates have gone on to work for major media organisations including: The Independent, The Economist, Sky News, BBC Arabic, Channel 4, Conde Nast and The Financial Times. You’ll also develop transferable skills to expand your career options.- Our teaching takes place on our purpose-built site, where we teach in small groups with a focus on high-quality lectures and practical workshops.- Located in the heart of London, you’ll benefit from our close links with the thriving media industry both in the city and worldwide. You’ll be able to enjoy access to exciting opportunities, build a portfolio of work, opt to do an internship and get careers advice while studying.
