Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Journalism, Film and Television Studies (Foundation Year) (L507)

This degree combines the fields of journalism, television and film to provide students with comprehensive knowledge of media practices and theory. The programme will open many doors in both industries and improve students' chances of gaining employment in the specialist area of film and television journalism.

The foundation year will equip students with study skills to review media, write essays and media copy, conduct research and critically analyse sources. Students will also learn about fundamental practices in communications, film, television and broadcast media. They’ll share the foundation year with students from other specialisms on a foundation year degree. This will be the perfect opportunity to learn about other disciplines and meet students outside of the course.

Throughout the degree staff will support students to succeed academically and make sure they settle into university life. Students will benefit from one-to-one sessions with the tutor, where they'll be able to discuss their work and progress. There will also be opportunities to polish other skills, such as essay writing or critical analysis, via workshops offered by the University.
