Centre for Broadcasting & Journalism
The Centre for Broadcasting & Journalism (CBJ) has outstanding specialist facilities to enable our journalism students to develop their skills in a professional real-life journalistic environment that is as close to industry-standard as possible.
The multi-million pound centre, in the heart of Nottingham, includes a dedicated newsroom, a broadcast standard TV studio and gallery, and three digital IP-based radio suites.
Industry standard
We’ve created a learning environment that’s as close as possible to the real world of industry. You’ll have access to a fully functioning TV studio, with production facilities and three radio studios all developed to industry standard.
Student technical resources
The CBJ Tech Store has a large stock of broadcast quality audio and video recording equipment and accessories, all free to loan, including:
- Panasonic AC90 and AC130 HD digital camcorder kits
- Canon and Panasonic DSLR cameras and lenses
- GoPro and 360 cameras

The tech team are incredible, they are such a friendly bunch and you learn so much by working closely with them every day. We had access to industry standard production and post-production equipment. Being able to use industry standard kit whilst studying really helped prepare me for life after university.
