Your future career

Our BA Digital Media Communication course has had many success stories. One is Reece Parkinson who studied on our course and went to work for the BBC - his most notable role being a radio presenter on BBC 1XTRA. Recently one of our students got an internship whilst on our employment and enterprise module. After graduation, they received job offers as a television producer with an independent studio. Another of our graduates, who managed to create an impressive portfolio as a travel blogger whilst at UEL, got an opportunity to come back and teach as an hourly paid lecturer on our course. The module leaders and lecturers are industry professionals who have worked and are still working in the field. With these connections, some of our students have been able to obtain internships and even make connections in the field. This ensures that our graduates' careers in media and communications are well within reach.
