Overview

Program Description HIC offers University First Year studies for candidates who do not meet the direct entry criteria or hold high school qualifications that are not recognised. Upon successful completion of the pathway programme students will progress onto the second year of their University of Hertfordshire progression degree. Studying the BA Media degree will equip students with a portfolio of practical skills as well as a theoretical and critical understanding of Media. This industry-focused approach, combining theory and practice, will help build their confidence, give them the communication and technological skills required for the industry and help them plan their career. Students will learn how to design their own app proposal, build and edit brilliant websites and create a hard-hitting ad campaign, including PR. They’ll also learn what makes a good news story or feature, and how to write one. Using industry standard software and equipment, professionally-experienced academics and researchers will help students develop skills across divergent platforms and for different audiences. These hands-on skills will be underpinned by an understanding of the global media industry, and the legal and ethical contexts of students' work. In the first year students will explore Global Media and Society, looking at who owns the news, at the influence of the BBC and commercial entities such as Sky and Murdoch’s News Corporation, and consider issues such as fake news.
