About this course
We blend critical, theoretical approaches to media with creative practice across a range of platforms. Giving you the knowledge and experience you need for various careers in and beyond the creative industries.
Our programme explores the relationship between society, communication, storytelling and technology. The media industries impact nearly all aspects of our lives. And they’re always evolving. Our course covers film and TV, documentary, animation and graphic design. So you’ll have a huge range of pathways to explore, all supported by expert tutors and industry-standard facilities.
Study film and TV production, and analyse screen media. Explore the economic, cultural and historical relationship between media and society. Examine news, documentaries and the representation of gender. And understand how media industries are organised – and what you need to do to get ahead.
Get access to bootcamps, masterclasses and guest speakers. Take advantage of local work placements as our region grows in popularity as a film location. And join our industry mentorship scheme, the Northern Media Mentors. They provide 1-to-1 advice and workshops to help prepare you for breaking into the media industries.
Throughout your degree, you’re expected to study for 1,200 hours per year. That’s based on 200 hours per 20 credit module. And it includes scheduled hours, time spent on placement and independent study. How this time is divided across the year varies and depends on the module you are studying.
How you'll be assessed depends on the course you study, and the modules you choose. You may be assessed through a mix of examinations, coursework, presentations and group projects.
