What do our students think?
“A community of students and staff coming together to develop new ways of communicating media to audiences”
Students are given the creative freedom to build a powerful portfolio of communications, digital marketing, journalism and social media content. I found my passion in journalism, but also explored website building, crafting an Alternate Reality Game, photo and video editing, blog writing and social media – the skills from which I'll carry forward in both my personal and professional life.
