Millie Payne, who graduates from the University of Brighton’s Journalism MA this year (having also completed a degree in English Language and Media at Brighton), is about to start as a junior showbiz reporter on the popular tabloid.

Millie says, “I did my undergraduate degree in English Language and Media at Brighton and absolutely loved it so it only made sense to stay and study Journalism there too for my MA.

“I got a really good feel for what the course would entail when I went to the open day and I thought ‘this course is made for me.’

“The staff at Brighton have been nothing but supportive, approachable and helpful, even in the middle of a pandemic when most – then all – learning went online. I have loved finding out more about myself as a prospective journalist throughout this course and I was also pushed out of my comfort zone too which I think will help me in the workplace!”
