Immerse yourself in the worlds of media, communication, and international development, and study the complex relationship between them. Discover the ways charities and other development organisations communicate about famine, poverty, and developing countries, and how they affect public attitudes. Explore why some humanitarian crises make it onto our TV screens and others don’t, and ask what effect is this has on government policy. You’ll also ask, how important is press freedom and freedom of speech in promoting democracy and economic growth? What is the impact of social media in developing countries – do Facebook and Twitter facilitate citizens' engagement with politics or do they undermine genuine political participation? These are just some of the key questions and problems that you’ll explore on this fascinating course. In your third year, you’ll spend three to four months gaining work experience abroad.

UEA is an internationally renowned university, based on a campus that provides top quality academic, social and cultural facilities to over 15,000 students. We have consistently been rated as one of the best universities for student experience in the UK, and were recently voted as having the UK’s best campus environment (Times Higher Education 2016).
The campus is located in 320 acres of rolling parkland, just two miles from the centre of Norwich, England’s first UNESCO City of Literature. Our uniquely-placed University is also a leading member of Norwich Research Park, one of Europe's biggest concentrations of researchers in the fields of environment, health and plant science.
Norwich is one of the most vibrant, historic and attractive cities in Europe, and is easily accessible by road, rail, bus, coach and air. Norwich International Airport offers direct flights to and from UK and international destinations, and London is less than 2 hours away by train.
With over 200 clubs and societies, a Students' Union with an excellent reputation for live music and events, a £30 million Sportspark, a wealth of support services, and an art gallery on campus, we think UEA offers an amazing student experience, and so do our students.
Home to over 15,000 Home/EU and International students, our Postgraduate community of around 3,500 students forms one of the central strengths of the University. We pride ourselves on the excellence of our wide range of intellectually stimulating Postgraduate Taught and Research degrees, and aim to offer a supportive environment, with leading academic specialists, and access to exceptional research resources.
In the latest Research Excellent Framework (REF) 2014, UEA came 10th in the UK for the quality of its research output and 21st overall out of all mainstream British institutions. The results show that more than 82% of UEA research is classified as either ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, confirming UEA’s position as a premier research institution making a substantial impact on the global challenges facing society. The University maintains this reputation by selecting the most able and dedicated staff and students from around the world, and challenging them to reach their full potential.
