Media production is an exciting, social activity – a form of communication influenced by many factors: cultural, economic and political. Successful practitioners in this industry make powerful media products that communicate with their target audience through drama or documentary. On this successful course you will learn to make both, with the option to continue as a generalist or specialise in moving image, radio, new media or scriptwriting.

The creative, analytical and practical skills you will acquire will equip you for many different careers both within the media industries and beyond. You will graduate with immediately relevant vocational skills together with the ability to develop and plan your career, capitalising on the intellectual skills that will serve you throughout your life. However, our graduates also opt for careers in teaching, in public relations and in public service. Many students choose to continue in education and register on taught or research based Masters courses in media.
