With a practical approach, the Bachelor of Arts (Journalism) will equip you with skills in reporting, writing, editing, design and production of content for a range of media including radio, television, online, newspaper and magazines. 

Our journalism lecturers have decades of high-profile media experience and give hands-on knowledge of the industry, including valuable networking opportunities.

Our industry partnerships and regional opportunities provide the opportunity to gain experience and complete internships in print, television, radio and online newsrooms.

A career reporting on the big issues

Many of our students have gone on to work all over Australia and internationally for a range of print, broadcast and online news organisations; some have also moved into public relations, politics and communications roles. They have picked up a wide range of media awards, such as the Walkley Award; former USQ journalism graduate Mark Willacy has twice been presented with this prestigious award.
