There are many types of journalism roles you can enter into, all of which have one thing in common: the audience is becoming more global. As more and more people all over the world gain access to a diversity of information sources through the internet and mass media, journalists must be constantly in tune with their increasingly international body of readers. Pursuing an undergraduate or postgraduate journalism and broadcasting degree abroad will help put you in touch with the world beyond your home nation, and enhance your skills and perspective as a reporter of fact.
An obvious first parameter when deciding where to pursue your journalism degree abroad is the language barrier. Luckily many of the world’s very best journalism schools are in English speaking countries. Colleges such as Columbia University in the United States, the University of Sheffield in the UK, and James Cook University in Australia, feature some of the most prestigious journalism schools (or J-Schools) in the world. Beyond these are hundreds more academic institutions where you can earn a journalism degree abroad, making your options extremely bountiful in the English speaking world.
As bilingualism is especially valued among modern international journalists, you might also consider taking your journalism studies to a country where English is not the primary language spoken. Earning a full journalism degree abroad will give you plenty of time to master the local language, giving you great versatility for a job in professional journalism after graduation. Countries ranging from Argentina to Italy to Japan can all provide journalism students with a unique academic experience while granting them the opportunity to learn a valuable new language.
The silver lining though is that most universities in non-English speaking countries will use the local language as the medium for classroom instruction and readings. So while earning a journalism degree abroad in the non-English speaking world is an exciting proposition, which can be very rewarding professionally, you will want to enter your studies with at least a respectable proficiency in the local language as to not be overwhelmed.
Traditionally journalism and broadcasting degrees are conferred at the graduate level, although many schools across the world are beginning to offer undergraduate degrees in journalism as well. If you are planning to earn your bachelors degree in journalism abroad then you will likely be attending a university for either three or four years. While not every university offers journalism and broadcasting degrees at the undergraduate level, most will at least offer programs in related fields, such as communications, which covers many of the same basic course concepts.
Masters degrees in journalism typically do not require that you have studied journalism at the undergraduate level, and programs will accept students from a wide array of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences (i.e. English, history, political science, film, etc.). Master’s degrees usually require one or two years of study to complete, depending on whether you study full time or part time, and whether you combine journalism with another course of study.
While undergraduate journalism programs will typically introduce you to a wide range of general concepts that facilitate a deep understanding of the field of journalism, graduate programs will usually give you the opportunity to specialize according to your individual interests in the field. For example media business, digital journalism, and television reporting are all directed ways you can focus your degree towards a specific career goal.
Go Global. Earning your journalism degree abroad will not just deepen your knowledge of global journalism and enhance you as a candidate for hiring, it will also prove to be the adventure of a lifetime as you immerse yourself totally in another country’s culture and customs.
Develop Communication Skills. As a journalist you will be reporting on all types of events and communicating with a large diversity of people. Studying journalism abroad in another country will challenge you to become a better communicator and adapt to any sort of environment.
Stay at the Forefront of the Field. Journalism is changing rapidly, and now more than ever employers are looking for job candidates with a strong training in the field. Journalism schools around the world will teach you the up-to-date trends and techniques of journalism and broadcasting, and have you looking ahead to the future too.

Program: Bachelor's & Master's Degrees in China | Apply with GAC
I wasn't sure about leaving Finland for a full degree in China, but GAC made the application process smooth. They helped me choose the right university, prepared my documents, and guided me through the visa process. Now I'm studying International Business at a top university in Beijing. Tuition is affordable, the campus is modern, and my classmates are from all over the world. The support didn't stop after enrollment – GAC checked in to make sure I settled in well. If you're considering a degree in China, go through GAC. They make it easy.

Strolling through Rome, between history and gelato, sunsets by the Tiber, and beauty in the chaos is an unforgettable experience filled with art, food, and everyday warm experiences with Italians. I enjoyed it a lot
I had a fun rime here! I would totally do it again! Best thing i have ever done , it allows you to experience rome 360 degrees while also traveling. I would do it every year of my undergraduate and nothing else.
I loved it, I learned how to be independent, a new language, made new friends and basically just got to know myself at a deeper level. I found myself through the program and learned so much. My professors were great and I would 100% recommend.
I’ve met some cool people and I’ve had some lovely experiences. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. Would 100% do it again. My favorite class was definitely introduction to video production. So. Much. Fun.
Had a great experience now on my last semester of university here in Rome and hoping to graduate in spring 2025 made great new friends and really learned a lot from all the different courses and great professor
John Cabot University offers a unique academic experience in the heart of Rome, combining American-style education with an international environment. Professors are highly approachable, and the small class sizes foster personalized learning. The campus is modern and well-equipped, while its location provides cultural immersion and networking opportunities in a global city. The diverse student body creates a rich exchange of ideas, but administrative processes can sometimes feel slow. Overall, it’s a great choice for those seeking a global perspective in their education while living in one of the world’s most historic cities.
Studying abroad in Rome has been life-changing. Exploring ancient ruins, strolling through vibrant piazzas, savoring authentic cuisine, and immersing in Italian culture have made every moment unforgettable.

Studying abroad is one of the best decisions you can make. You make new friends learn new stuff and culture. Studying in the new environment is better than beong surrounded by close minded people in you own country
My university in Italy is exceptional for numerous reasons. Situated in a country celebrated for its cultural heritage and academic tradition, it offers an unmatched educational experience. The faculty, consisting of world-renowned scholars, provides students with cutting-edge knowledge and invaluable mentorship. The university's curriculum is both rigorous and adaptable, allowing students to customize their studies to fit their interests and career aspirations.
great experience with professor and classmates. they were all kind and i had the time of my life. would definitely recommend to family and friends. don’t have anything to complain about. perfect perfect.
ho, my name is corrado and i want the merchandise for my friend because i’m graduating (i hope so). I’m graduating in economics and finance and i also have a minor in business administration. See you in the graduation day!
I am really liking my experience at JCU because the international environment can open your mind and broaden your life experiences, plus the relationship with professors and staff members is really good and they’re usually really available to help you solve any problems you might have.
Living and studying in Rome has been the best experience of my life. I have met so many incredible people and am learning so much by living with individuals from all over the world and with completely different cultures than mine.
Choosing to study in another country to get a degree was a huge decision to make but also one of my best ones. This school and community has been so welcoming and immersive to where I feel confident in my ability to travel further and continue to broaden my horizons. There is no place quite like JCU!
I’ve truly loved my time at JCU. I’ve met people I’ll cherish for the rest of my life and I’ve learned so much. JCUs not perfect but I don’t regret my decision to come here at all. If you want a more unique college experience you should come here!
My experience at JCU has been excellent because I got a lot of good memories like meeting a lot of people from various regions around the globe. For me, meeting and talking to new people is always fun.
I came to John Cabot University in Rome after taking a gap year and going to community college. I was looking for more and JCU has offered me everything I have wanted. Living in a beautiful, historic city, being immersed in the culture, constantly learning in and out of the classroom, meeting new people, and experiencing new things! JCU is so much more than a college experience, it is a life experience!
John Cabot was an experience that I maybe appreciated too late. As I now graduate, I realise how lucky I was to be able to study in such a multicultural and openminded environment with amazing professors
The university offers a variety of courses and programs. The environment is friendly and diverse. Th professors are so nice and are very willing to help you in case you need. You will find great people and your experience will be unforgettable
