Vox Asia — Students put skills developed in entry-level on-line courses (JMSC 6091 for MJs and 0007 for BJs) to run a professional news and features service (second semester). In addition to producing multiple-media packages, they are required to compete head-on with professional news organisations and report breaking news live on at least one occasion.
