Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Media and Communications (Foundation Year) (PPH8)

London Metropolitan University's Media and Communications (Foundation Year) BSc (Hons) degree is the perfect route into higher education if students want to work in media but don't have the necessary qualifications for an undergraduate degree.
