Teams and roles for Catherine Duncan
Senior Lecturer
Overview
I am course director of the NCTJ-accredited News Journalism MA and am an NCTJ-qualified journalist mysef.
Before joining Cardiff University I enjoyed a long career in newspapers, mainly in production journalism, leaving as a regional editor. I specialised in training, recruitment and mentorship and won the NCTJ's first Chairman's Award for helping to develop national assessment strategies.
The course gives students the tools they need to enter the world of paid journalism. I am particularly proud of our employability record, and our growing alumni network.
The latest work of our students can be read on The Cardiffian.
Teaching
I lead modules MCT549 Reporting and Production, MCT600 News Journalism, and teach on MCT560 Professional Development as well as guiding students through their NCTJ Diploma assessments. I am also a personal tutor and MCT561 major project supervisor.
