Course Information

These two dynamic subjects will help you to develop your analytic and questioning skills, and understanding of individual, group and organisational communications.

Our course combinations are designed so that what you learn in one subject will complement and enhance what you learn in the other. In your final year you can choose either to split your time evenly between your two subjects, or to specialise in one. Our flexible curriculum has been designed to create some amazing opportunities for you too. Your second year of study is divided into two semesters that enables you to take part in optional work placements or go on international exchange.

By choosing Communication & Society and Philosophy you’ll enjoy the freedom to choose from a wide range of optional modules, depending on your own preferences and interests. These two fascinating subjects will help you to develop your critical thinking skills, giving you the tools to challenge and question fundamental aspects of communication and the ways in which we receive and process ideas and information.
