Summary
Overview The media industry is in constant change. In a sector where success depends on keeping ahead of the trend, our MA Media and Communications degree course will help you stand out from the competition.
This wide-ranging Master’s degree in Media and Communication will provide depth and breadth to your existing knowledge base. You'll analyse the current and historic effects of media on society, and learn about how traditional and new media can be used to communicate different messages. You'll combine cultural, historical and industry-specific analysis with theoretical study, and develop a deeper critical understanding of the media too.
You'll also have the chance to test your creativity, by producing screenplays and TV scripts. Or you may choose to do a self-sourced media mini-placement, which will provide you with practical experience and insight to give your skillset that extra competitive edge.
Once you graduate, you'll be well placed to pursue roles across the media industry, including writing for television, publishing, journalism, media criticism, scriptwriting, film and media management.
