The emphasis here is on the practical - the day-to-day print or on-line editorial operation of a busy news magazine or newspaper features department. Students will be expected to work on their own and collaboratively, with the stress always on that ultimate requirement for the successful magazine journalist - the need to be a self-starter. The successful student will emerge with a professional-level understanding of the sometimes hierarchical, sometimes collegial structure of the editorial department and the roles of interrelated components - including advertising, art, production (print and online) and circulation.
