Students gain the knowledge, understanding and skills to reflect on their work in the media, and to identify and respond in a reasoned, positive and reflective manner to initiatives and challenges in the sector.One key aspect of a career in the media is the continuous state of technological development. Accordingly, while training in particular technologies is part of the degree, an ethos across the programme is for students to develop a strategic approach to their career pathway and personal development so as to prepare themselves for a working life of continuous professional development.Students work towards specific projects in Year 1 to ensure an understanding of practical media production methods and their theoretical underpinning. Camera, lighting and sound production and its ever changing technology are explored, as are TV research methods. Year 2 allows students to begin to specialise and explore creativity within production groups; modules examine different media forms as well as TV studio, drama and documentary production.The Multimedia Project reflects the convergence of technologies found in the contemporary industry by asking students to create a project of their choice in one medium and produce supporting, promotional material in two other media. Students learn how to produce drama and documentary, culminating in a public film festival at the end of Year 2. Year 3 allows for more individual student-led learning while pushing creative boundaries within modules. FacilitiesOpen 24 hours a day, the Multimedia Centre offers outstanding industry-standard facilities including two HD TV studios with green screens, a newsroom, a computerised radio studio, and facilities for multitrack audio recording. A wide range of equipment is available and the Centre is an Apple Certified Training Centre.

About this course
The University aims to develop students as 'confident learners' by enabling them to acquire the knowledge and skills to excel in their studies here and be transferable to further studies or the employment market. Staff and students form a community of learners who, together and independently, seek to generate and exchange knowledge. Over the duration of the course, students develop independent and critical learning, building confidence and expertise progressively through independent and collaborative research, problem solving, and analysis with the support of staff. Students take responsibility for their own learning and are encouraged to make use of the wide range of learning resources available to them.In addition to the formally scheduled contact time (i.e. lectures, seminars etc.), students are encouraged to access academic support from staff within the course team, personal tutors and the wide range of services to students within the University.
