Course Overview

The Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Journalism in Chinese Media is a versatile programme that extends beyond focusing on “writing and reporting news.” The programme aims to cultivate multifaceted content professionals with expertise in media and information literacy across various media platforms.
 

In addition to mastering proficiency in journalistic practices and media communications, graduates will gain in-depth insights into the Chinese media industry, both domestically and internationally. They will also develop skills in cross-media content creation and social media marketing, potentially evolving into independent media entrepreneurs.

中文媒体新闻系是一个一专多能的专业，并非字面上所表达只专注‘采写新闻’。此专业旨在培养兼备资讯及媒体素养以及创意思维于一身的跨媒体专才。除了掌握新闻媒体与传播知识，更深入了解海内外中文媒体市场，学生也将练就跨媒体内容创制及社群营销技能，养成成为独立自媒体经营者的能力。
