BA French and Journalism, Media and Communication
About this course
French and Journalism, Media and Communication is a degree that links the cultural depth of French language study with the practical and critical knowledge needed to work in the media and communications industries. French opens access to France and to a diverse global community of French-speaking nations and their media ecosystems, while journalism, media and communication studies develops your understanding of how information is produced, distributed and consumed in professional and public contexts, and equips you with the technical and professional skills to contribute to it. At the University of Strathclyde this four-year full-time degree develops your competence in French alongside a broad professional grounding in media, journalism, communication, information design and management. The journalism and media component is taught with a critical understanding of the media industry alongside practical training, connecting your academic understanding of how media works to the real professional environment of Glasgow and beyond. The combination prepares you to engage with French-language media contexts as well as wider international media environments. Graduates from French and Journalism, Media and Communication degrees go on to careers in journalism, broadcasting, media production, communications, public relations, digital media and cultural organisations, with the added advantage of French language skills that open doors in France, French-speaking Africa, Canada and other francophone contexts. Others find roles in education, international organisations and the civil service. Postgraduate study in journalism, media, French or international communications is a natural continuation for those wishing to specialise further.
