This stream has enjoyed an outstanding reputation over many years for preparing students with the skills, understanding and professionalism necessary for a career in the media industry. You will be taught by journalists with many years experience in print, radio and television and learn both the professional aspects of journalism practice and the theoretical understanding of media law and regulation, the history and economics of the media, and ethical and social issues. You can also choose to expand your knowledge by incorporating studies in related media areas, such as film and television and the social sciences (anthropology, history, politics, sociology).

Analytical and practical production skills are essential for a career in either the independent, broadcast or corporate film and television industries. In this stream you will gain conceptual knowledge and creative skills by working intensively with professional-level equipment in a challenging and creative film and television environment.
