Our media and communications degrees provide you with a critical understanding of the media in today’s world. We have a particular focus on the social and cultural dimensions of media while providing you with industry-standard training in media production skills. With free access to the full Adobe Creative Cloud software suite, you will gain a foundation in areas such as photography, audio-visual production, and video editing in our dedicated edit suites. You’ll learn how this competitive industry works from a variety of perspectives while debating the latest challenges for media and society, from free speech to the disruptive or connective powers of social media and the metaverse.
Throughout your course, you’ll have access to mentoring and placement opportunities, while benefiting from our formal partnership with the British Film Institute, involving a series of careers masterclasses and media industry-ready training. We arrange partnerships with employers and ensure that you have access to a wide range of placement opportunities throughout your course; current partners include Creative UK and CallTime Foundations. On the three-year version of our degree you will have the option to undertake short-term work placements during your course or via the Brunel Summer Internship Programme, but if you would prefer a more substantial placement, you can apply for our four-year Media and Communications (with Placement) programmes instead.
The mix of practical media production skills and theory provides you with a wide range of career options when you graduate. Our alumni are working at prestigious international media organisations like Disney, ITV and Sky in roles such as TV production managers, digital marketing, and public relations. Three years after graduation, over 93% of our students are in employment or further study, compared to the sector median of 84.7%, and our media graduates earn on average £3,000 more per year than the sector mean (Discover Uni, 2023). Because of this, our Media and Communications degree is ranked 1st in the country for social mobility (Sutton Trust League Table 2023)
