On this course, you’ll become familiar with the cultural and social theories that inform the development of communication strategies, and you’ll draw on these in order to engage audiences through a range of media. You’ll then develop the skills needed to put these strategies into practice, gaining expertise and experience in communication management and web content development. What sets us apart is our specialist position as an arts, design and media institution, which allows us to deliver studio-based learning. The atmosphere in a studio-based environment mirrors that of a creative agency with a strong emphasis put on group work and creative media solutions, underpinned by theory. You’ll work closely with others specialising in a range of media disciplines, broadening your understanding of the field and providing opportunities for creative collaboration.

You’ll graduate with a strong theoretical understanding of media and communications, along with a strategic understanding of how to use creative media content across a range of platforms. This will equip you for a range of roles, including: Media strategist (in-house or at an agency) Audience engagement specialist Media content developer Communication manager Public relations officer Teaching and training.
