Description:

Are you wondering about what equipment you’ll be able to get your hands on? Think TV studios, a modern news centre with the iNews system, the latest professional video cameras, along with 60 AVID video editing suites and five digital radio stations, not to mention a suite of iPod Touches. Lots of our graduates have already made the most of facilities like these to go on to inspiring jobs, working for places like The BBC, ITV Yorkshire, Team FA, TV Yorkshire, The Daily Mirror and The Press Association.

Here at Huddersfield we also put a lot of focus on public relations. You’ll be able to study how PR and journalism interlink, and learn about how to become a success at PR. It’s a rewarding career many of our previous students have gone on to enjoy. Whatever path you go down, we’ll make sure it’s a practical one. Throughout your degree you’ll have chances to take control of the microphone or the camera and gain valuable hands-on practical experience. You could take advantage of a placement with an external client like a newspaper, broadcaster or production company, all the while gaining experience and contacts as you go.
