Course description
Students undertake an individual project. This is a Level 3 course. Therefore, it is assumed that students will have either successfully completed the Level 1 and Level 2 courses in the Bachelor of Arts Journalism and Mass Communication Major or the Bachelor of Journalism, or be able to demonstrate equivalent background. This course is based on supervised self-directed learning. It provides an opportunity to undertake a project in an area of special interest, and to explore issues related to journalism and communication, drawing on the theoretical and practical experiences gained while studying these fields. Through this course students will have the opportunity to think, discuss, analyse and undertake a project on issues relating to journalism.
