• This course will equip students with the skills and theory needed to analyze the media and think critically about its social and political impacts.
  • Students will study theory and research in communication and media alongside the broader economic, political and social context of the communication and media industries.
  • While this course is theoretical rather than practical, they can choose from a small number of practice-based modules to explore aspects of media production, enabling you to build skills in screenwriting, camera, and editing techniques, and new media practices.
  • Taught by expert researchers, students can choose to focus on digital media, film studies, journalism, and a range of other topics. They could even undertake a four-week work placement to gain hands-on experience in the communication and media industries.
