Course Overview

This degree provides a comprehensive examination of the theory, practice, and socio-cultural implications of communications, film, and television. With an interdisciplinary approach that combines critical thinking with creative practice and close attention to context, you’ll come to see how film, TV, advertising print, and digital media are important forms of communication with their own distinctive traditions, styles, and ideologies.

Exploring the complex relationship between communications, culture, and society, you’ll examine the ways in which the big and small screen, print, and digital media shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. Alongside engaging with a diverse range of media communications, you'll explore themes such as identity, the environment, and representation from local, national, and international perspectives and develop critical thinking and analytical skills to assess the social, cultural, and political implications of different media forms.

Throughout your studies, you will develop critical thinking, analytical, and creative skills that are essential for success in these dynamic and rapidly evolving fields.
