Journalism Studies (Research)

Join the growing research culture in Journalism Studies at Sussex and explore the practices, politics and impact of journalism in a wide range of contexts.

You’ll work with experienced faculty guiding and supervising you throughout your research project.

Areas of study

We particularly welcome research proposals in:

• news journalism

• political communications

• journalism and the military

• journalism and intelligence

• investigative journalism

• media and protest.

Projects can be co-supervised by faculty in other subject areas as appropriate.

We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
