Ilisimatusarfik's Journalism programme is for students who want to investigate important issues in society and follow them through to publication. The bachelor's degree combines theoretical study with practical, work-focused training aimed at direct employment as a journalist.
Students build skills in journalistic method alongside an understanding of how Greenlandic society and its institutions are organised. The degree expects students to work well with others while also being able to manage themselves independently, since journalism involves tracking down stories and taking the initiative without close supervision. Coursework covers writing, video production and storytelling, with placements at real media organisations as part of the training, including a substantial twelve-month work placement preparing students for professional journalism practice.
The bachelor's programme is based at the Ilimmarfik campus.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Applicants should be able to work well with others while also managing themselves independently and taking initiative, since journalism requires self-directed investigation and follow-through without close supervision.
