Program description

When you choose the minor Journalism you form together with other students an editorial board, being responsible for a variety of publications.

Being this editorial board we expect you always to be searching for news. You have to know what your target groups find attractive and important. You should not be scared; you regularly will have to get in touch with persons or organisations and confront them with your (critical) questions. A lot of information you will have to dig up doing research. In the end the information has to be processed into a journalistically seen attractive format and you will have to decide which medium fits best to which (part of) the information: paper, internet, radio, television.

In this minor we seek collaboration with a few partners: The English section of the Hanze mag(azine), the English radio program HappyHourFM and their websites. Furthermore we will work on extension of the media we will work for (creating a weekly tv program, in collaboration with HappyHour and the local broadcasting organisation OOG is in reach).
