How to Apply for a Flexible Entry Place

The Bachelor of Arts (Media & Communications) is a four year full-time degree which allows students to combine an academically excellent undergraduate education in the humanities and social sciences with broad professional training in the media and communications field.

Students will acquire a portfolio of vocational skills relevant to the fields of print, radio, television, online media and media relations, as well as an advanced education in the history and theory of the media.
