This MSc Factual Television gives you the tools you’ll need to create factual content for broadcast. Developed with industry and taught by experienced practitioners, this course is focussed on practice: growing ideas, developing proposals and making programmes.
You’ll learn how to develop factual content, how the modern television industry works and how issues of editorial and ethics affect programme-makers today.
Hands-on experience is at the heart of everything we do in production at Stirling. Our courses mirror professional practice in the industry: teaching includes masterclasses, workshops and pitching panels with experienced practitioners.
The course will cover core areas of factual TV:

During this course, you’ll explore ethical issues of representation, consent, trust and editorial control while learning about the business of factual content.
You’ll build up your practical skills with a series of creative challenges:
