    In first level facilities

    We live in complex, changing and uncertain times, but also exciting. In the midst of the digital era, where society feels vulnerable in the face of disinformation and polarisation, journalism is once again emerging as a guarantor of truth and a support for democracies.

    Journalism has the opportunity to renew its commitment as a public service and for this the university has the obligation to train future professionals with the necessary competences and skills to face these challenges. And this is our objective.

    Through a renewed and well-structured curriculum, we want to train future communicators to develop their professional career in multiple areas linked to the world of communication and information and also in companies and institutions that are part of our sector. Therefore, we highlight a triple path of employability that responds to what employers are demanding of us.

    On the one hand, at Nebrija University we equip them with the ability to work in the media, in television and radio, in new audiovisual and sound formats, in traditional print media and in digital media. We also make future Nebrija journalists experts in digital journalism, specialising in data management, social networks and new information narratives, which will enable them to work with multidisciplinary teams and in business areas beyond the media.

    At the same time, we train them to manage corporate and institutional communication effectively, so that they can contribute and help companies or public institutions to connect and communicate in a solvent way with their audiences of interest.

    All of this with a first class teaching staff, experienced, professional, innovative and investigative, necessary to provide students with the perfect balance between the practical knowledge that this profession requires and the critical spirit, cultural background and reflective and investigative capacity that all journalists must possess to confront their work.

    Live the journalistic profession
    from day one

    There is no better way to learn than by doing. Our philosophy is perfectly reflected in Nebrija Medialab, an experiential space with studios for radio, TV, digital newsroom, design...

    Grado en Periodismo

    “Hoy es fundamental para un periodista saber trabajar con todo tipo de fuentes, personales, documentales y estadísticas. Y en este mundo digital plagado de datos, es imprescindible que un informador tenga capacidad para encontrar historias, muchas veces ocultas, entre todos esos datos. Pero de nada serviría saber interpretar y manejar tecnológicamente esa información si no hemos desarrollado antes los básicos que requiere esta profesión: saber encontrar historias y saber contarlas. Por ello, en mis clases de periodismo digital y de datos, además de manejar herramientas tecnológicas que nos permiten encontrar e interpretar el dato, procuro que los estudiantes desarrollen ese “olfato periodístico” que les permita encontrar buenas y nuevas historias más allá del periodismo de declaraciones”.

    "In a world where information is more accessible than ever, but also more vulnerable to misinformation, our programme seeks to equip students with the tools to navigate this complex environment. From day one, we encourage critical thinking, professional ethics and mastery of new technologies.
