Academic, scientific or professional interest:

Graduates in Journalism are professionals who are culturally, humanistically and technically prepared to function as interpreters of the social reality as they conceive, articulate, produce, administer, analyse and manage a variety of media, programmes and products in any medium: press, radio, TV and the Internet.

 

Worth Noting:

The Bachelor's Degree in Journalism is designed to provide a broad theoretical and practical multimedia knowledge: press, radio, TV and internet. These studies are based on social sciences (sociology, law, economics, political science) and the use of information and communication technologies (ICT).

This degree offers students a multi-specialisation in journalism dealing with society, politics, culture, economics, science and technology. Learning is based on a reflective, critical and experimental integration, with the complement of a compulsory internship period in media-related companies. The capacity for personal initiative, together with a good attitude towards team work are also necessary for the successful completion of this programme.

To obtain the Bachelor's Degree in Journalism, it is a requirement to accredit communicative competence in a foreign language at level B1. Recognition will be issued during the final year by means of one of these two options:
