Media Studies

Course summary

Studying Media gives you the opportunity to analyse and deconstruct the fast-moving, media-rich world that surrounds us. You will learn how different institutions create (and often control) the media. For example, how the BBC create their television dramas and how Bauer Media and IPC create magazines for different audiences. Once you have learnt how the professionals do it, we let you have a go! You will have the opportunity to work in small group practical lessons with our Technical Support Assistant, an ex-industry professional, to learn how to create your own music magazines and videos, so that you really understand how these products are created.
