Overview

Journalism, Public Relations with Media is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Journalism covers media law and ethics alongside the practical work, which is what employers ask about.

Tuition ranges from £18,000 to £20,000 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
