puts our university at the forefront of studies in this field and confirms the Church's desire to be present with the greatest commitment in this area,\u201d said Bishop Enrico dal Covolo, rector of the Pontifical Lateran University.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe new master's degree in digital journalism comes after Pope Benedict XVI reached 2.5 million twitter followers after posting his first tweet on Dec.

Portuguese.<\/p>\n<p>\tCourse lecturers for the Lateran university's new program include the Vatican's Secretariat of State media adviser Greg Burke, who took up office just last year after working for Fox News as Rome correspondent.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe master's degree will be in Italian and hold a maximum of 35 students who will study in depth online journalism and how to start up their own business in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe course leaders will be former director of Italian news outlet Sky Tg24 Emilio Carelli and Dario Edoardo Vigan\u00f2.<\/p>\n<p>\tOther lecturers will include director of Huffington Post Italy Lucia Annunziata, Mario Giordano \u2013 the director of Tg LA7 and Tgcom 24 \u2013 ANSA president Giulio Anselmi, La Stampa columnist Marcello Sorgi and writer and blogger, Vittorio Zambardino.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe program will offer students internships in Italian national newspapers as well as in the Huffington Post Italy, YOUniversalMedia, Tgcom24, Sky Tg24 and
