About this course

Media and communication is the study of how information, stories, and ideas are produced, distributed, and received through the many channels that make up contemporary media, from film and television to digital platforms, advertising, and social media. It is a discipline that asks both how media texts are made and what they do in the world, combining creative practice with critical analysis and developing graduates who can both produce media and think rigorously about its cultural, economic, and political dimensions. Understanding how media influences society and culture is essential for anyone who wants to work in the media industries or to understand the information environments in which we all now live. At York St John University this four-year programme includes a foundation year, a sandwich year, a year abroad, and work placement experience, making it a comprehensive and profession
