Apologies for cross-posting. Upcoming intake January 2013 MA in Data Journalism, Tilburg University, the Netherlands (12 months) http://www.tilburguniversity.edu/education/masters-programmes/data-journalis... The developments of the internet have given database journalism a new definition, according to which it defines a process where the database becomes the center of the journalistic work (as opposed to the story in traditional journalism). It slowly evolved in data journalism; a journalistic process based on analyzing and filtering large data sets for the purpose of creating a new story. This new international master explores the opportunities of data journalism from four angles: data retrieval, data storytelling, data visualization and data publishing. It combines the scientific methods of data treatment with the core values of journalism: select, arrange, digest and reflect. The master track puts strong focus on online and social media based journalism. The master track Data Journalism (DJ) has a natural connection with Human Aspects of Information Technology (HAIT) and Communication Design (CD). Embedded in the strong Communication and Information Sciences program, Tilburg University believes to launch a unique master in which a student learns how to transfer information and how new means of communication can be used.
