It continues to be supported by 'The Broadcasting and Journalism Industry Consortium', which is made up of professionals working in the media industry who advise on course content, assist in the selection process, offer work experience and provide a number of annual awards. Nottingham is a lively and vibrant city situated at the heart of the country. The city has all the facilities and entertainment a student needs - excellent shops, exciting nightlife, sports facilities and a thriving arts and cultural scene. If you want a break from city life, Nottingham has numerous parks, picturesque villages and good walking country within easy range.
Student accommodation is available close to the city campus in single, bed-sitting rooms.
First-year students are given some priority for accommodation on campus, but making a prompt request also helps. You'll find an active Students' Union with a lively programme of social events, and there are numerous bookshops, banks and eating places both in and around the campus. For students arriving from overseas, we provide a free orientation course, year-round English language support for a very moderate fee, an International Students' Society and an International Friendship Scheme. We'll give you vocational training in the skills of news gathering, writing, interviewing, research, news presentation and production. The practical skills are set within a context of theoretical modules intended to encourage a wide range of critical and investigative skills.
