Course Overview

If you have a passion for producing audio and video and communicating with an audience, this program is for you. Taught by existing and former broadcast professionals and renowned media academics, this degree offers all the skills, aptitude, and abilities to enter the broadcast industry with confidence and ability.

Perhaps you've already got your radio podcast about your favorite football team, or you've always wanted to make TV drama. But, on the other hand, you might have a burning desire to tell people's stories through documentary, direct a studio show, or manages a large production. If so, this course is for you.

If you don't yet have any experience but have all the ambition, the course starts at a place everyone who meets the entry requirements can begin their exciting journey.

On the BA (Hons) TV and Radio Production program, you'll learn how to find great stories, develop your ideas, pitch and present those ideas, write scripts, research, pre-produce, and produce your ideas whether this is for radio or TV, or another audio or video platform. There will be an opportunity to take on real-world briefs from the industry as part of the course. You can develop your craft skills in camera and lighting, studio production, editing, creative audio, or the skills necessary to manage productions. You can also delve into the theory, where you critically underpin practice with academic rigor.

Our unique location at the heart of MediaCity means you'll be perfectly placed to tap into a network of leading media companies, from the BBC and ITV to a range of experimental start-up companies across Salford and Manchester. All of the equipment and facilities in our MediaCity campus building are industry standard to the exact specification of the big-name producer-broadcasters that are our next-door neighbors. And, like all good neighbors, we have them round to visit regularly. So there are many opportunities to engage with industry – both within the course and extra extras you can get involved with, like the Media Futures conference, where students get to pitch ideas to broadcasters.

You will:

  • Study in the heart of MediaCity, one of the UK's leading media production hubs
