The MA Media and Communications program has a strong professional focus and aims to equip students with practical and theoretical knowledge necessary to thrive in the media industry, both in the UK and worldwide.
Throughout the program, students will acquire digital and professional skills in areas such as audience research, audio-visual media content production, and data analytics. These skills will enable them to effectively plan, implement, and evaluate digital communications campaigns.
Moreover, students will develop essential skills in qualitative and quantitative research methods, enabling them to conduct descriptive statistical analysis of their communications. They will also have the opportunity to engage critically with ethical concepts in media across various formats.
Typically, it is recommended that you possess a second-class honours degree (some programs may require a 2:1) from a recognized university in the UK or abroad. If you have any questions regarding the recognition of your degree, you can seek advice from the Admissions Office. In cases where individuals do not hold a degree but have relevant professional qualifications, the Program Conveners will evaluate each applicant on a case-by-case basis. You can find the contact details of the Program Conveners on the specific program's webpage. It is expected that applicants will apply and enroll for the complete master's program.
