Course summary

Our Media, Film and Journalism (with Foundation Year) option is a four-year course with an integrated foundation year which leads to the same qualification as our three-year honours degree. It has been specifically designed for those wanting to undertake degree-level study but who may not meet the entry requirements or have traditional qualifications. The Foundation Year (Year 0) offers you the chance to expand and strengthen your confidence, skills and knowledge – on successful completion, you will join Year 1 of the BA (Hons) Media, Film and Journalism programme. Our Media, Film and Journalism degree will allow you to develop your creative voice whilst giving you skills, knowledge and experience in a range of creative and communications media. Gain both practical and analytical skills and benefit from our strong connections with working film studios and access to broadcasting companies. The foundation year aims to equip you with the academic and study skills to succeed at degree-level. You’ll sample various methods of university learning, including seminars and tutorials. ‘Placement Year’ and 'International Experience Year’ options are available for this course. You will have the opportunity to fully consider these options when you have started your course at Bangor and can make an application for a transfer onto such a pathway at the appropriate time. You can find more information about these options on our website and if you have any questions, please get in touch.
