Journalism (Bachelor of Communication)

Tell stories that matter and build a portfolio of work to launch your future in the fast-evolving news media industries. Taking a hands-on approach, you will have opportunities to unearth stories, source interviews, and write and produce news packages that engage, entertain and inspire audiences on print, online, video and audio platforms. Make your voice heard on Deakin’s journalism publication, DScribe, and kickstart your career with a sought-after internship with one of our industry partners.

With access to our specialist newsroom and industry-standard equipment on campus or specialising as a mobile journalist from anywhere in the world, you will produce news, current affairs and feature packages with impact. You’ll grow your entrepreneurial mindset, from pitching story ideas to promoting the finished product on social media. You’ll be ready for a broad range of careers, from newsrooms, to organisations connecting with customers through story, to an entrepreneurial change maker.
