Course summary
A number of our degrees are also offered with an additional foundation year (Year 0). Whether you are a school-leaver or someone considering returning to study but don’t have the entry requirements for your chosen subject, a foundation year course may be just what you’re looking for. A foundation year is the first year of a four year programme which: •provides an introduction not only to study at University but also to your chosen subject •offers you a highly supportive environment where you can develop the self-confidence, knowledge, skills and understanding for further study. A foundation year helps you develop the study skills and self-confidence needed for higher education when you don’t reach the entry requirements for your subject. If you use Instagram or Snapchat, if you play computer games, if you binge on Netflix, or if you want to be a vlogger, then Media and Communications is the degree for you. We’ll help you design webpages, write copy and explore and apply techniques of advertising and public relations. We’ll show you how the media is regulated and how it works, as well as aiding you to reach as wide an audience as possible.
