BA (Hons) Journalism and Communications with Integrated International Foundation Year and Professional Practice Year

Storytelling takes many forms, and on our new BA (Hons) Journalism & Communications degree course at UCA Farnham, you’ll learn how to tell a whole world of stories in a compelling and engaging way.

Whether you’re aiming to become a journalist or work in the wider communications industry such as public relations, marketing or corporate or internal communications, you’ll gain the skills to make your mark.

From the get-go, you’ll be encouraged to find exciting people with interesting stories and to tell them in your own unique way. You’ll be taught to produce journalism for different platforms – from apps, websites and magazines to television, radio, podcasts, and social media – and to find your own distinctive specialism such as culture, the environment, music, fashion, sport, politics or equality and human rights.
