BA (Hons) Journalism, Media and Communication & Politics and International Relations

... United Kingdom
... University of Strathclyde

Course Overview

Today’s media industry expands beyond traditional print and broadcast journalism. It includes professional bloggers and vloggers, freelance writers and editors, podcasters, people working in entertainment TV, radio, or film, creators of video games and interactive apps, promoters of ideas and products, and many others.

The most successful professionals in today’s media are highly skilled in reporting, writing, editing and pitching their material, and they are also excellent communicators online and offline and problem-solvers. They are innovative and entrepreneurial, bold and curious, open-minded and collaborative. These are also some of Strathclyde’s core values, which guide our own teaching, research, and public engagement.

As a politics student, you'll look at the work of governments and their policies and study the behaviour of those who govern - and who they are governing - both at home and abroad. You'll also gain knowledge of domestic and international institutions and issues relating to conflict and cooperation. We cover diverse and relevant problems, such as international terrorism to the 2014 Scottish Independence Referendum. Politics graduates can go on to work in several areas, with many pursuing academic research careers in the UK, Europe and North America.

Pursuing this joint degree will engage you in practical learning in a broad professional context, which includes a critical understanding of the media industry while acquiring technical and professional skills in journalism, communication, information design and management and using them in the dynamic media market of Glasgow and beyond.
