The Department of Journalism at City University London is one of the world's leading journalism schools[1][2].
It is considered one of the best universities in the United Kingdom in that field of study[3][4] as well as the nation's largest centre for journalism education[1]. It is regarded as the "Oxbridge of journalism"[5].
British newspaper The Independent praised its "legendary status within the media", primarily due to its practical approach to journalism and its unparalleled access to media facilities[6].
