BA (Hons) Media

About Program

In your first year, you cover media and meaning, media identity and diversity, media power and/or making media (i.e. a practical introduction to media content creation). This gives you a solid grounding in the subject and introduces you to some of the most pressing issues in contemporary media culture and the creative industries. The second and final years of your degree build on these foundations. You take a module on media ethics and choose from a huge range of modules, covering everything from podcasting, gender and digital culture, social media, digital storytelling, to photography and arts criticism, screenwriting and curating. You can also study modules from other subjects, such as film, drama and theatre, art history, literature, history, philosophy, politics and sociology. Combine contemporary media and culture with content production: How are digital technologies forming identities, shaping politics and affecting audiences? Customise your programme with elective modules ranging from social media and celebrity culture to podcasting and promotional media. Learn from leading experts: Be taught by practitioners and researchers who contribute to contemporary debate through their publications and frequently appear on national news and television. Be part of a professional network: Make connections with external industry professionals, from organisations like the BBC and The Guardian, through regular careers events, symposia, seminars, conferences and exhibitions. Join our community: A creative hub for film, drama, media studies and art history, where you can engage in activities and societies, such as the Student Media Centre, where volunteers produce print, radio and online content. Important Additional Costs You may incur additional costs in the course of your education at the university over and above tuition fees in an academic year such as laptops, stationary and additional resources.
