The world's largest faculty of journalism and communication”
Introduction to the Program
Specialize in Photojournalism, one of the disciplines with the greatest number of professional opportunities, acquiring the knowledge you need in shooting, editing, mobile photojournalism and broadcasting in new channels"

The Professional master’s degree in Photojournalism provides journalism professionals with specialist knowledge from the point of view of the photographer, and the role they play in the digital world. Among the skills to be acquired are the knowledge and application of the technologies and systems used to process, elaborate and transmit information in the form of images, and express and disseminate creations or fiction from photography.
Specialize in the ideation, planning and execution of informative or visual communicative projects, specifically in the development and proposal of a photographic image adapted to the new social, cultural, economic and technological contexts. This Professional Master's Degree is taught by a team of teaching professionals who are experts in the different areas of this sector. The program brings together a range of knowledge that is very rarely found "united" in terms of what is taught at other universities.
The structure of the Professional master’s degree is developed in such a way that it begins with general knowledge based on photojournalism, with its history and genres. It then moves on to specialist knowledge, with a module devoted entirely to sports photojournalism, one of the disciplines with the greatest output and the most difficult to cover correctly, and one that is not usually studied in such a complete way.
After this first part focused mainly on theory, we move on to the more technical part, ranging from the operation of a camera to editing and digital development. During this process, there is a module dedicated to the acquisition of knowledge to develop "perfect" photographs and a module on the acquisition of skills to create and work in a photographic studio or photojournalism through a smartphone, for example.
Subsequently, the program focuses on social networks and image verification, which is so necessary today since, in 2017, the Oxford dictionary established "Fake News" as word of the year. Finally, Module 10 deals with ethics and image rights, aspects that are necessary to know and implement on a daily basis if you want to work as a photojournalist.
A unique syllabus in terms of content diversity, which enables those interested in this branch of the profession to develop specialized and necessary knowledge, to work with skill and stand out in a world invaded by photographs, many of which don’t have the minimum quality required to be published in a relevant media.
A study focused on the real acquisition of specialized knowledge that will allow you to take impactful photographs that will set you apart from the competition in the field of photojournalism"
