From traditional print and broadcast media to film and television, digital publishing, social networking, and public relations, the media increasingly defines the way we interact with our society. It shapes the way we see ourselves and others, and can be a powerful tool for social change, good or bad. Our academic interrogation of media and communication is research-led, practice-driven and teaching-focused. Teaching is by experienced academics with extensive industry backgrounds and knowledge. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT • You’ll be taught by motivated industry professionals with impressive academic credentials.
• A key element is the major project or dissertation that enables students to develop expertise in a specific area of interest. • If you are already an industry professional, this course offers dynamic new media skills and qualifications to boost your continuing professional development.
• A prominent practical element (both in teaching and work placements) in journalism, public relations, the digital media landscape and film making.
