Student review [#25592] for Journalism
at University of Porto - U.Porto

The degree has 2 years where we learn a lot from journalism, marketing, design, coding, PR, among other related subjects to communication sciences. In the third year, we must choose a branch between journalism, public relations or multimedia. In the final semester, we do an internship with a company or a newspaper to have a sense of a real-life work environment.
That being said, we have a lot of time and opportunities to try, experiment, figure ourselves out and, even if we choose a branch that, at the end of the day, we don’t like, we have learned enough tools to do many other different things. It’s important to try things but, it’s also good to be focused on a goal, on a specific niche that you might want to work after the degree, such as politics, or sports.
As a special needs student, if found a lot of support from the faculty and the university. They really want me to succeed and want to help me do so.
