Overview Sport is big news and big business, and that means Sports Journalism is about much more than match reports and event coverage. It’s about exploring the stories behind the headlines and understanding the broader context that the sports industry, and the media that cover it, operate in.
Our degree has been designed for people who are passionate about sport and who have a real desire to develop the journalistic skills needed to bring it alive for audiences, help people understand what makes the industry tick and what happens off the sports field, as well as on it.
