Media And Communication BA in University of Leicester

Our BA in Media and Communication is designed to provide you with an understanding of a wide range of contemporary issues related to the theory, development and practice of mass and interactive communication, both nationally and internationally. You will learn how news is produced and reported, and how media industries, politics, culture and society interact, as well as learning about a very wide range of media, from newspapers to Twitter, from Hollywood movies to reality TV.

Leicester has been at the forefront of media research since 1966 and our teaching ensures you will benefit from cutting-edge developments in your field as they occur. We are ranked as one of the top 15 places in the UK to study Media and Communications*.

Today, the media is in your pocket, on your bedside table and in your classroom; now more mobile than just the television in the living room. Media is an integral part of social and political revolutions and changes. From Pinterest to photo and location tagging on Facebook, from long-trusted newspapers read in print to films discussed on YouTube – the media are now so much part of our lives that we take them for granted.

You will study a wide range of issues in the field of media and communication and will be able to shape your studies by choosing the topics that you are most interested in. You can specialise by choosing from four different routes:

• Mass communication
• New and digital media
• Media practice
• Film and cultural studies
• Or develop your own route by choosing option modules which interest you the most. Among other things, you can choose to study media production, audiences, media policy, film, television, new media, journalism or international communication

Through the great academic and practical support we offer you in group, as well as individual teaching situations, you will learn to work both collaboratively and independently. The way we will assess you will foster skills in critical analysis, communication, research methods, group work and of course, media practice. We also place great emphasis on helping you to build your skills for the world of work.
