Description:

Our new BA(Hons) Journalism and Public Relations will give you skills in writing, marketing communications and media strategy across print, screen and internet platforms, making you employable in a range of communications industries. In addition to learning the hands-on craft of traditional reporting and PR, you will produce compelling stories using technologies such as blogs, content marketing, digital and social media. The course will give you an in-depth understanding of the political, economic and media contexts in which both industries work, locally, nationally and internationally.

In a changing media landscape, with the future of newsprint and the traditional press office uncertain, you have the potential to turn your skills into a rewarding, well-paid career.
