MA International Journalism


School of Journalism & Communication

1.Rationale

Globalization has made the world in some senses an ever-shrinking “global village,” characterized by global media’s growing impact on all spheres of our lives. This program aims to train students’ critical thinking about issues in international journalism as well as to enhance their journalism skills. Students have opportunities to explore global media and their political, economic and cultural relationships in different societies.


The program surveys the current global media landscape and the practice of international journalism – meaning reporting by a given country’s nationals on events outside that country. Engaging with theories and research, students can develop an understanding of the historical, social and political context in which media industries compete and the academic debates swirling around global news flows, cosmopolitanism and connectivity as well as the emergence of new social and cultural forms no longer tied to the territory of nation-states. Also, the program looks at power relations among nations, specifically as they seek to influence public opinion at home and abroad.
