A Postgraduate certificate in Specialization in Sports Photojournalism configured as a highly useful tool for the professional, which will allow you to learn how to manage all the factors that determine the impact and quality of the images in this field" 

Sports photojournalism, or the journalistic image in sports, has been and is a determining factor in assessing the state of sports journalism. Traditionally, the role of the sports journalist has been relegated to a discredited and devalued position, especially by their own colleagues, who have commonly referred to the sports newsroom as the 'Toy Department'.

The same happens in the academic field with studies related to communication and sport. For this reason, and choosing the figure of the sports photojournalist as one of the most forgotten in this same sector, this module focuses on discovering and valuing the photojournalistic work around sports. The student will experience a historical journey through the most iconic images that represent the most transcendental sports events and figures. 

The value of a good sports image in a given context can transcend to other journalistic fields such as politics, economics and social issues. In this line, it is essential to recognize the differences between a photojournalist in charge of a single sporting discipline, capable of understanding the development of the game and empathizing with the athlete at key moments, and those who work in different sporting practices. This specialization will be decisive to be able to capture and reflect not only what happens during the sporting event but also what frames it, such as the moments prior to the start, the reactions reflected in the fans and the different protagonists during its course or the emotions that arise after the end of the event. 

Finally, it is also important to bear in mind that the power of the sports image serves to break with traditional models or, conversely, to maintain an increasingly outdated discourse. In an era based on spectacularization and where, thanks to social networks and the different new digital platforms, images increase their value as news and descriptive material. Therefore, understanding the role of women represented through the journalistic image in the different sports media is fundamental in order to, with hindsight, advance towards an equitable and ethical treatment, capable of abandoning sexualization or success as exceptional motives for the representation of women in sports.
