About this course

MA Media, Communications and Critical Practice at LCC fuses media theory with creative and professional practice. You will be encouraged to think critically about the role of media in the digital age, exploring problems and challenges through your engagement with key theories of media, culture and communication alongside a range of creative media practices.

Professional practice is central to the course. You'll be introduced to new perspectives on employment in the creative industries before participating in a work placement or industry-focused research project.

Previously students have benefitted from work-based learning with organisations such as the BBC, Oxfam, the British Film Institute and Versace LA.

Our alumni progress to employment across the creative industries, taking up roles in a range of fields from digital marketing and strategic communications to management and curation, and many other fields.

Recent graduates have joined BBC factual programming, the British Council, Possible Worldwide (WPP) and Revolve Media, while others have continued their studies at doctoral level.
