Mass Communications

With its focus firmly on how the media works and how to work in the media, our BA(Hons) Mass Communications combines practical and theoretical knowledge to give you a valuable range of skills, knowledge and experiences.

Through the course, we strive to provide a rich learning experience, combining traditional seminars and lectures with the latest digital and online technologies.

Shape your course, shape your future

During your First and Second Years you will choose four subject pathways from the following list, establishing a strong foundation in communications:

• English Language & Communication
• Film
• Journalism
• Media Cultures
• New Media Publishing

This is a very practical course, so within each area you will learn how to produce work in that media.

If you study film, you will learn how to make a short film. If you opt for journalism, you will learn to write like a journalist. And if you choose new media, you will learn how to design websites and magazines.

In your Final Year, you can specialise by taking up to half of your modules in any one of the pathways above.
