THe COURSe

Get yourself on the touchline of a media career with sport at its heart.

Gain a kit bag full of transferable skills that you can take into creative, social and digital media jobs. You'll learn to use a range of content creation tools in the first year then apply them in year two during work placements.

This course offers you the perfect opportunity to see what it's like to work in a live commercial sports environment. You’ll take matchday photographs, make behind-the-scenes videos, live-stream, and help produce event programmes. All of this is made possible through our associations with Bristol Sport through the Robins Foundation, Bristol Met Basketball Academy, Weston-super-Mare AFC and Inner City Football Academy.
