Applications for the 2024-2025 Master of Journalism (MJ) programme are now open. Join us for an Information Session on campus and discover the opportunities that await you at The University of Hong Kong.

Matt Walsh, director of the MJ Programme, will give an introductory presentation covering the programme’s structure, courses, and entry requirements. MJ hopefuls will also be given a tour of our facilities to see the equipment available for students to use during the course of their studies, including our broadcast studio and production facility.

Our graduate programme, taught by a faculty of experienced journalists and media scholars, welcomes 80 students annually from diverse backgrounds and countries. Some of our students are working journalists, with others coming from other professions and have taken the programme to embark on new careers in journalism. Graduates have been hired by the world’s leading media organisations, including BBC, Bloomberg, CNN, and The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal.

The Centre’s teaching philosophy reflects the needs of both traditional journalism and today’s changing media landscape, preparing students to practise accurate, honest and high-quality journalism on all media platforms.

The programme offers a wide range of elective courses, including business journalism, data journalism, long form and feature writing, covering China, generative A.I. in media applications, podcasting, and documentary filmmaking.

The application deadline is 31 January 2024.
