JOURNALISM
As a Journalist, you are able to mould your future to suit your own personal interests and passions. Becoming a Journalist is not just about reporting for a local newspaper, radio station or T.V. channel. With the growing number of news-based websites, many Journalists are reporting across multiple media platforms.
