Master Journalisme

The Master Journalisme at Université de Picardie Jules-Verne in Amiens, France, is a two-year graduate program in journalism delivered in French. Journalism as a field of study covers the skills and practices involved in researching, writing, and producing news and informational content across print, broadcast, and digital media. Students typically study reporting techniques, media law and ethics, editing and production for different formats, and the use of digital tools for online and multimedia journalism. Coursework often includes practical exercises such as producing articles, audio, or video pieces, alongside instruction on how news organizations are structured and how journalism functions within a democratic society. Graduates of journalism programs commonly work as reporters, editors, or producers for newspapers, magazines, radio, television, or online news outlets. Others move into roles in press relations and corporate communications, where writing and media skills developed during journalism training are applied to organizational messaging. Some graduates specialize in areas such as investigative reporting, political or economic journalism, or multimedia and data journalism, while others pursue freelance work across print and digital platforms. The training also supports careers in publishing and content production more broadly. The program spans two years, beginning in September, with instruction delivered entirely in French at the Amiens campus. Yearly tuition for the program is two hundred fifty euros, in line with fees at French public universities.
