Grady’s Travel Writing program was created with the idea that we would travel to different places each year. As a travel journalist adventures from one place to another, so does this Travel Writing course!
This program allows students a unique opportunity to gain a cultural perspective through first-hand travel writing experiences while earning course credit. By participating in one of these programs, students are exposed to successful industry professionals that share a glimpse of what life is like as a journalist across the globe.
So far, this course has adventured to Cambodia, Dublin, Prague, Croatia, Ireland, and Munich – with new adventures just getting started!
In 2022, we are excited to be traveling back to Prague, Czech Republic and to Copenhagen, Denmark!
Travel to Prague, Czech Republic and be immersed in an exciting travel-writing course that focuses on subjects that are both timeless and timely. Learn to develop strong stories for print and the web, how to pitch articles to editors and other practical tools needed to work in the field.
Travel to Copenhagen, Denmark for an exhilarating and immersive experience of Travel Journalism!
Travel journalism has three distinct qualities: emphasis on cultural awareness; ambition to provide depth or insight beyond the surface; and complexity of theme, material, and structure within a specific place and with a specific people. While being immersed in Denmark, we will explore a range of techniques that travel journalists use to discover and verify information, to tell stories, and to engage audiences.
