he broadcast route starts in year two with weekly radio newsdays, a key part of the the training in which students produce a series of broadcasts in real time.


In year three they move on to television news days, overseen by senior working journalists from outside UCLan. They produce packages on all kinds of local and national news, sometimes joining students from other courses for one- off projects such as Preston Cuts, a review of the coaltion government’s spending review.


They complete their third year by producing a community digital project, such as a website including video and audio content. These projects, which can be international, must respond to what the community wants, and students must provide training for the community to keep the project going.


Kit used is industry standard. Students use Avid newscutter video editing and i-news software. Audio software includes Burli, ENPS and Adobe Audition. The journalism department has a television studio and six radio studios.


Broadcast students are guided by course leader Debbie Robinson, who spent ten years as a BBC television news reporter. She also has extensive experience in regional newspapers, national magazines, radio and public relations.
