Take full control over your study - access support seven days a week, plan your study to fit around your life, view learning resources 24/7, and log into the interactive online environment anywhere, any time and on any device.

Learn to unlock your creativity, and bring your ideas to life in visually engaging ways – whether that be through an animation that grabs someone’s interest, a video that moves people to act, an online game that helps students learn, or a social media campaign that goes viral!

Our digital media degree is a primer into the broad range of practical and technical skills that employers are telling us they need. You’ll learn in a creative environment that integrates the latest technology and creative practice, using the latest Adobe Creative Cloud software that you’ll have access to for free.

At the end of your degree, you'll come out as an excellent visual storyteller with a broad foundation in essential design skills including video and documentary production, animation and visual effects, digital humanities and graphic design.
