On the BA (Hons) Journalism degree students are encouraged to put journalistic theory into practice and have opportunities to produce news content to a professional standard while exploring the ethical and legal considerations of the industry. At Lincoln, a newsroom culture enables students to develop the skills and instincts of a journalist, from spotting a scoop to developing in-depth feature ideas. Students work in industry-standard newsrooms with rolling news feeds, print production and design software, producing broadcast content in digital radio and television studios. The School of English & Journalism is staffed by media professionals, bringing a diverse range of experience and expertise. The course is taught by academics, researchers and practising journalists.

Taking a multi-platform approach from the outset, students have the opportunity to explore the fundamental principles of journalistic practice and produce news items on a regular basis in your first year. In the second and third years, you choose from a range of theoretical and practical modules, including broadcast, print and online production, international human rights and ethics. In the final year of the degree, students can select from modules including broadcast news and features, sports journalism, conflict reporting and international media. There is also a compulsory module in which students reflect upon 15 days of work placement experience. Please note that students are responsible for their travel, accommodation and general living expenses when undertaking this placement. For the most up to date module information, please visit the course page for this programme on our website. Some programmes provide you with the opportunity to focus your study in a particular area through optional modules. Timetabling arrangements may limit the availability of some optional modules to some students. As the options often reflect staff research interests, they may alter over time due to staff availability.

The way students will be assessed on this course will vary for each module. It could include coursework, such as a dissertation or essay, written and practical exams, portfolio development, group work or presentations to name some examples. Throughout this degree, students may receive tuition from professors, senior lecturers, lecturers, researchers, practitioners, visiting experts or technicians, and they may be supported in their learning by other students.

For each course students may find that there are additional costs. These may be with regard to the specific clothing, materials or equipment required, depending on their subject area. Some courses provide opportunities for students to undertake field work or field trips. Where these are compulsory, the cost for the travel, accommodation and meals may be covered by the University and so is included in the fee. Where these are optional students will normally (unless stated otherwise) be required to pay their own transportation, accommodation and meal costs. With regards to text books, the University provides students who enrol with a comprehensive reading list and our extensive library holds either material or virtual versions of the core texts that students are required to read. However, students may prefer to purchase some of these for themselves and will therefore be responsible for this cost.
