My name is Tara McCormack and I am from County Offaly, I decided last year that I wanted to go back and pursue journalism. I have been in radio for the last eight years, I actually got into radio during my undergraduate degree at UL which was the BA in English and media, as it was known at the time.

The course here at UL seemed to have the most diverse overview in that it covered the spectrum of skills a contemporary journalist needs to enter the field without veering too deeply into one particular discipline so much that it would neglect another.

I learned so much over the course of the two years, on a diverse range of topics and from the most experienced professionals in the field. Musically speaking, we were challenged in a new and exciting way each week, and the group approach was both an inviting and inspiring way to learn. We learned many new skills and techniques on a variety of instruments, and how to implement it in a clinical environment.

Learn why choosing to do a postgraduate degree at UL might just be the best decision you’ll ever make.

I liked the interdisciplinary nature of the programme, the broad range of subjects makes the content transferrable to a variety of different settings. The course allows for flexibility in applying your learning to both the public and private sector . I will be honest the program was challenging but rewarding. There are a lot of transferable skills developed during the course of the Masters programmes such as critical thinking, creative thinking, and analytical skills.

I would recommend the course; I would also really recommend UL as I felt very supported by staff and indeed my fellow students. I find when people think about applied linguistics they should not just be thinking about an academic or professional view of linguistics, because you will learn a lot for your personal life as well.
