B.A. in Journalism (Bachelor Honours Degree)
The BAJ is a journalism degree intended for those with enquiring minds, for people who want to learn how to tell stories in a way that will help people in Ireland and internationally to find the best way forward.
The technologies of journalism change, but the need for it does not. Online, in print or across the airwaves, or in social media, stories are told that engage thepublic and help people to understand their world. In all areas of life, from business to politics, from culture to religion, from sports to lifestyles, the public looks to journalism for guidance. Their role is varied - it can be to entertain or educate as well as to inform the public.
