This is a very practical course and you will meet many outstanding people as your classmates. They may already be editors or reporters of well-known media organisations. You can learn from them and find a unique way of looking at problems.

I really enjoy how practical and useful my programme has been so far. We're not just learning theory, we're doing hands-on journalism creation and production. This is not only very helpful for future career prospects, it's really fun too!

My scholarship was beneficial to my studies as I didn't have to worry about finances while doing my work. This also pushed me to work harder to live up to my scholarship, and I'm thankful for the opportunity to prove myself and be a successful student.
