Media

Our Media-based degrees combine creative practice with deep intellectual inquiry. Our programmes explore how media - from film and digital technology to journalism and public relations - shape society, culture, and power.

Media, Journalism and Public Relations at Newcastle University is a leading research unit with a strong, interdisciplinary culture. Students work alongside world-leading academics and award-winning practitioners, developing advanced research skills and professional expertise. 

This research-led environment informs all our teaching, from undergraduate degrees that blend theory with practical skills in our industry-standard facilities, to specialised Master’s courses designed as ‘laboratories of inquiry’.

It’s an environment where students are trained to be skilled professionals and agents of change, equipped with the critical understanding, ethical grounding, and innovative practice to build meaningful careers and contribute to a more equitable media landscape.
