Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Media and Communication with Foundation Year

Program Overview

From television and film to audio and mobile communication, modern life is being reshaped by the media and communication environment. It influences how we work, relax and relate to those around us. Our course takes you to the heart of this world.

The course looks at the media's increasing reach and influence, providing you with the knowledge and skills to make sense of this dramatically and swiftly changing sector. Thanks to our close industry links, you'll have the chance to undertake valuable work-based learning while on placement.

We're proud that, based on recent research carried out by The Times, we're in the top seven courses in the country for media and communication. We like to think we're getting even better.

As one of our students, Shaheen Abdouramane, says, "The course is extremely broad and is adaptable to suit the path you wish to take, whether it's media production, cultural studies, gender, race, journalism, advertising or a mixture of all of them.

"The great thing is that the lecturers are enthusiastic about what they teach and the support is there if you need it."

Foundation year

If you don't meet the entry requirements for a BA, you can study this course as an extended, four-year programme. You'll begin by taking a foundation year which prepares you for a successful transition to the BA degree. This means it will take you four years to complete the course full-time, and eight years to complete the course part-time.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

This is a course that's strong on both theory and practice. As you undertake a wide-ranging exploration of all areas of 21st century media and communication, you'll be encouraged both to think and to create.

You'll engage with media production work across all levels of the degree, producing content in various forms, from computer-based photography to music and sound.

Our modules also offer specialist areas of study in TV, radio, film, music, publishing, marketing communications and social and digital media.

In your second year, you'll have the chance to work in a group, studying London through a media lens and producing work such as our students' innovative online blog this year. Then, in your final year, you'll complete either a written dissertation or a production project.

Throughout the course, you'll have a chance to broaden your knowledge through a variety of talks by industry professionals and you'll have the chance to attend special events as well as visits to exhibitions and galleries.

There's no better place in the country to study media and communication than London and we make every effort to ensure you get the full benefit from studying in this dynamic city.
