This postgraduate diploma provides advanced professional training in journalism for graduates of other disciplines who wish to enter the field. The 30-credit programme runs full-time or part-time, with day and evening courses at the Montreal campus; full-time completion takes a minimum of two trimesters, with up to four years allowed from initial enrollment, and course offerings span a minimum of three trimesters. An optional internship is available for students who wish to gain newsroom experience alongside coursework. Coursework builds practical reporting, writing, and editorial skills alongside professional and ethical grounding in journalism practice, covering research, interviewing, and production methods used across news media. Graduates are prepared for reporting, editorial, and production roles across print, broadcast, and digital news organizations, and the credential can also support a transition into journalism from another discipline.
