Journalism at the Age of Uncertainty, 5 cr

The course invites students to analyze, experiment and discuss in class the current state of journalism as a profession, practice and entrepreneurship from the perspective of ongoing global changes in power, technology, economy and identity. In the process of active learning, the students will be encouraged to think about their future and profession beyond national boundaries, in a comparative context with non-Western countries (based on the BRICS journalism study).

The course consists of five online lectures and five workshops based on group work (20 hours). Basic completion of the course provides 5 credits: Students watch lectures, read articles suggested in reading materials, conduct independent research, work in groups to make joint presentations, and write essays.
