MA Global Data Journalism (Online)

This pathway on the MA Global Journalism prepares students to tell high-impact world-changing stories using data.

It is delivered in partnership with the Institute for Journalism and Social Change, led by Claire Provost, former data journalist for the Guardian and head of global investigations for Open Democracy.

Our course content as well as teaching methods are rooted in a conception of journalism’s potential to speak truth to power, and a concern for the different ways in which that is under threat: from disinformation to emergent forms of censorship and repression.

We will consider all applications with a 2:2 (or international equivalent) or higher in a relevant subject.

In addition to degree classification in a relevant subject we take into account other elements of the application such as supporting statement. References are optional, but can help build a stronger application if you fall below the 2:2 requirement or have non-traditional qualifications.
