Description
The Placement draws on both critical and creative strands of the BA Media degree, building upon the knowledge gained taking the Digital Economy and Professional Practice and Making the Media modules in Year 2. The aim is to prepare students for the world of work. Students will work with local companies, institutions and communities, expanding skills in creative entrepreneurship, Education, GLAM and community engagement. It is an opportunity for students to begin to use their critical and creative skills to bear on real world problems. It is a tenet of this programme to connect academics and students to industry and surrounding community and this module is a key component of that aim.
