课程特征 Course Features：
Become a top-class reporter who digs out the best stories and turns them into crisp, engaging copy against tight deadlines. You'll learn to write stories that punch their weight with every word.
Initially you'll do this in pressurised workshops in the department’s newsroom, then you’ll be sent to your own 'patch' to find stories. You'll report from courtrooms and from council meetings where local politicians are taking decisions about people's lives.
We'll prepare you for the multimedia environment by teaching you how to create audio and video for the web and how to use social media effectively.
