Description:

Have you ever dreamed of being a sports writer? This extended course is perfect if you want a degree in Sports Journalism but you don't meet the standard entry requirements.

First we prepare you for your degree during the foundation year, bringing you up to speed with academic skills and a firm grounding in the subject. Then you can go on to do the full undergraduate degree.

Our course offers an exciting but practical, hands-on approach to learning how to report on sport. By the time you finish your degree, you'll be fully trained as a multi-platform journalist, ready to write for newspapers, magazines, radio, television, the internet and mobile apps.

Remember, because there are no general education courses, you can earn a bachelor's degree in only 3 years at UEL — 4 with a foundation year.
