| Description | In our so-called ‘post-truth’ era of fake news and alternative facts, what does it mean to communicate the truth? What are the ethical and practical issues journalists face in today’s globalised world? Our BA Philosophy and Journalism degree allows you to examine our fundamental desire to communicate and discuss important shared events and experiences, through two distinct approaches. You’ll develop a range of journalistic skills while exploring and challenging the assumptions that frame the way we think, act and see the world around us. All our philosophy lecturers are active researchers, so you’ll share the excitement of doing original work in a supportive and highly rated academic community. Our journalism team are highly experienced practitioners, who’ll help you develop the skills of writing, research and interviewing over several platforms, including online and broadcast. You’ll also examine journalism both within the context of the communications industry as a whole and look at global trends in media.
