Graduate Diploma - Journalism (GD074P5) (012959A)

The Graduate Diploma in Journalism is designed to enhance students' undergraduate qualification with focused study in journalism. This one-year diploma sets them up for a career as a journalist by allowing them to explore all forms of contemporary journalism and put modern practice into its legal, ethical and social context.

As part of the curriculum, students will present and produce live radio news for community radio station RRR and the live-to-air television news program, Newsline, as well as create text and data reports for the publication The City Journal.

Students will work individually with the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology's work placement coordinator to find at least one internship as part of their study.

Upon completing this diploma, students will have developed the skills and knowledge necessary for an entry-level position in journalism and in doing so follow in the footsteps of many of Australia’s award-winning journalists.
