Description:

Ever wondered why animals can’t talk but humans can? And how the words we use affect the message we are trying to send? This joint course provides the answer to both these questions and more. You’ll explore the foundations of human communication, the psychology behind language and how people act differently in different situations. You’ll do this alongside studying one of the top twenty institutions in the country for media, journalism and PR. In your media course, you’ll learn about how to craft media messages, how to write for a variety of different platforms from news sites to scripting videos and you’ll develop a whole range of media related skills ranging from digital to broadcast, alongside studying media research. How does how you write impact on the message you send and how can you learn the ways that different forms of media operate and what it takes to join this exciting industry? By choosing both subjects as a combination, you’ll learn about both subjects and how they overlap.
