About this program

The University of Melbourne's Master of Journalism is a practice-based degree, two years full-time or shorter for applicants with relevant prior study. It is distinct from Melbourne's Master of International Journalism. Students produce journalism across text, audio and video while studying media law, ethics, politics and research methods, and work in the university's newsroom facilities. The degree suits both graduates entering journalism and working communicators formalising their skills. Graduates work as reporters, editors, producers, podcast makers, fact-checkers and communications specialists in media, government and the non-profit sector. Indicative international tuition is around A$49,000 per year; confirm the current figure on the Melbourne course fees page.
