Description:

A compulsory component of the course is the final year work-based learning module, which involves spending time working on placement with an external client. This could be a few weeks with a newspaper, broadcaster or production company, or one day a week over several months in the busy media office of a company, professional sports club, or public sector organisation.

The course also offers an optional one-year (48 weeks) work placement after the second year, in the UK or abroad. This will give you the opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience, insight into your chosen career and open up your graduate employment prospects. Previous placement providers have included the BBC and independent TV companies, a variety of radio stations and newspapers and magazines, along with leading public relations companies and social media agencies.
