The course is taught by academics with extensive professional experience and industry contacts, meaning you can benefit from a range of guest lectures to learn valuable insight. Recent speakers have included representatives from Vogue International, Glamour, Grazia, VICE, Wonderland, Alexander McQueen, The Daily Mail, Oasis, Topshop and Google. To complement your studies and aid employability, you will be expected to complete a minimum 100 hours work experience to help develop a dynamic portfolio, a global awareness of skills and how to use them to best effect, and a working knowledge of the industry. Students start developing a portfolio of work that is published in the first month of study which is built on over three years to demonstrate the breadth and professionalism of their practice. **What does this course lead to?** This course can lead to a wide variety of careers in magazine journalism, publishing, social media strategy, influencer marketing, art direction, photography, event management, PR and within digital creative agencies offering editorial and commercial content production. **Who is this course for?** This course is ideally suited to students who want to develop professional written, photographic, digital and design skills to create innovative and exciting content for magazines, digital platforms and social media.
