Sport Journalism tie-in with GiveMeSport

Excellent news for the course. We’ve come to a partnership arrangement with GiveMeSport, one the UK’s fastest growing sports websites.

“It’s important to recognise the growth of online media and it is vitally important we equip our students with the tools to be successful across all mediums. This partnership provides an excellent opportunity for those on the course to learn how to make a mark in online journalism” said Jed Novick, sport journalism course leader.

A number of former students on the course have found full-time employment at GMS, including Will Haine, manager of the GiveMeSport Academy.

“We are absolutely thrilled to be working with the University of Brighton’s sport journalism course,” he said. “I know more than anyone what a great course it is and the work the students do is perfect training for a company like ours. Our Academy is committed to cultivating the talent of the next generation and it’s great to be working closely with them with work placements, seminars and training sessions. We’re looking forward to continuing the development of these budding stars of the industry.”
