That's why we think it's important that the University of East London should be the only UK university currently enabling you to complement your degree with a professional qualification.So, in your final year, you can take a course of assessments which will lead to the Professional Certificate in Journalism, awarded by the trade body for Britain's magazine industry - the Professional Publishers Association.Journalism is, of course, a competitive world to enter. You have a head start at UEL, though, thanks to teachers with exceptional contacts who know exactly what newspapers, radio stations and other media outlets are looking for.Indeed, the track record of our graduates demonstrates that anything is possible.Sam Wostear, one of our first journalism graduates, was Woman Editor of The Sun, Britain's biggest-selling daily newspaper for eleven years. Siobhan Breatnach, who earned an MA in Journalism at UEL in 2009, became the editor of the Irish Post within three years of leaving us.
