Journalism is an important, exciting and dynamic field. It tells us  about ourselves. The platforms through which we tell our stories are  evolving, and in UL we offer students a chance to engage with and  deliver stories across all digital and social media platforms. We help  develop real-world practical and critical thinking skills in students so  that their journalism is informed by a balanced sense of justice,  accuracy and life-experience. Over the four years our students will:

• Produce their own radio reports and TV bulletins, in our state of the art studios

• Work on the awarding winning Limerick Voice news website, social media platforms and local newspaper (www.limerickvoice.com)

• Produce and design an online magazine

• Work with the latest digital publishing and editing software programmes including Adobe Audition, Final Cut Pro and Indesign

• Use social media to self-publish and promote work

• Learn key fact-checking and online verification skills
