香港留学|香港浸会大学传媒专业解析
香港浸会大学传理学院一直是有意修读新闻课程的学生热门之选。
浸大于1956年创办,而传理学院在1968年创立,现为提供全面本科生与研究生传理学课程的学府。该学院的传理学学士课程是香港竞争最激烈的JUPAS课程之一,其下设有三个主修方向,包括电影主修、新闻与数码媒体主修、公关及广告主修。
其中,新闻与数码媒体主修课程分设两个专修,包括新闻专修及数码媒体专修。
新闻专修旨在为学生在中文媒体或以英语运作的国际媒体中的职业发展做准备;而数码媒体专修是与计算器科学系联合开设的课程,旨在培养懂新闻又掌握数据能力的人才,特别是在数据可视化和分析方面。
每名新闻专修学生须于三年级开始,在广播新闻、中文新闻、财经新闻、国际新闻中选择一个组别进行修读。
其中,中文新闻着重培养学生中文写作与采编能力,以适应在本港及中文地区的媒体工作;而国际新闻则主要训练学生的英语写作及采编能力,为日后任职英语为主的国际新闻媒体做准备。
学生在选定专修后,若有志毕业后成为电台或电视台记者,可选择加入广播新闻组别;若同学对财经范畴感兴趣,则可选择财经新闻组别。
此外,新闻系还鼓励学生到海外进行不同形式的学习交流,学生亦会获得学院的海外学习津贴。学系亦会定期举办海外采访团,带领学生在目的地进行采访,并撰写新闻故事及制作影音报道,以让学生探索跨越国界和文化的新闻工作,助他们拓宽视野,打实新闻基础。
在研究生阶段,浸大传理学院更加重视跨学科培养理念,开设了诸如媒体管理、智能数码传媒等课程,例如媒体管理项目,利用两所学院的专业知识,将媒体和管理的最新知识融入到其课程设计中,以培养媒体专业人士在媒体行业的领导能力。
本科程的毕业生将会掌握大众传播知识,以及在大中华地区及其他地区的管理和工商管理的各个方面的综合知识。
毕业生有望具备能够在媒体行业的重要管理岗位上工作的能力,并为在全球信息时代晋升到媒体行业的领导职位做好准备。
