Media and Communications, BA - 2016/17

Media and Communications is an exciting, multi-disciplinary degree that prepares students for the world of work by providing them with a highly marketable mix of skills and knowledge related to communications and the media. The media and communication industries are amongst the most rapidly growing sectors of the global economy in the 21st century providing graduates with exciting opportunities. These sectors are also key aspects of contemporary social life. Every day we engage with media and communications − texting, Facebook, chatting, the Internet, games, TV, newspapers, magazines, radio, photography, films just to name a few. 75% of our days are spent communicating with someone. Our programme is designed to help students to develop in-depth knowledge about these important sectors as well as to maximise their career prospects and develop skills that employers want. For those students looking for a degree that is relevant to contemporary life, up-to-date and provides opportunities to explore how the media influence society, Media and Communications at Canterbury Christ Church University would be the right choice.
