British media industry: "the sun sets" gold medal

As the london olympic games entered the countdown, the olympic fever again engulfed all walks of life. According to the data, the olympic games will create up to 100,000 jobs in the united kingdom and will be extensive. The media industry has borne the brunt。

The british media industry has always been known for its size and strength. In a country with a population of 60 million people in the united kingdom, the media, such as newspapers, magazines, books, television, radio and various audiovisual products, are almost everywhere in daily life. As a result, more and more students are choosing to study in the uk. The united kingdom media industry has a strong and old record compared to the media industry in countries such as the united states。

Professional classification

The media professions in the united kingdom are divided into media (media), communications and news (journalism)。

In short, the media and communication specialization is broad and can be used for theoretical knowledge of culture, advertising, public relations, etc. But journalism is more specific, like internatioNal journalism (international news), in addition to some theoretical knowledge, includes a great deal of practice: news writing, journalism, mirrors, etc. Students are also sometimes required to learn the language and literature, the transmission of information and the expertise of social organizations, as well as the behavioural sciences between people or between people and organizations. There are also schools that set up specialties such as television films。

Application requirements

Undergraduate studies in the media in england do not require much professional background for applicants. After graduation from high school, the applicant usually has to undergo one year of preparatory studies before entering undergraduate studies. If the applicant's achievements in yath or toof do not meet the language requirements of the applied school, after admission to the school, it is usually required to attend a language course of several weeks as prescribed by the school。

Post-graduate programmes in media professions usually require applicants to have a bachelor's degree in relevant professions (media, communications and journalism), while some schools offer specialties and even require applicants to offer personal works (such as advertising). However, there are also a number of british universities that admit students who do not have a media professional background at the undergraduate level, such as newcastle university。

The english language requirements are generally as follows: some schools also require students to listen, speak, read and write individually to meet school requirements. If the language requirements of the school are not met, students, like undergraduate applicants, usually need to attend a language course of several weeks before starting their postgraduate studies。

Employment orientation

The career orientation of media students after graduation has varied considerably as a result of different courses of study。

Media students usually choose to work in photography, digital editing, audio processing, cd-rom production and web design。

Many students in the field of communication choose to enter advertising companies to work in advertising design, marketing advice, advertising enforcement, etc., and some of them graduate into government departments, educational institutions, cultural exchange organizations, etc。

After graduation, students in journalism usually choose to enter major types of newspapers and news publishing houses, while students also choose to work in radio, television, etc. For chinese students whose english is not the first language, since the media and communication professions do not require strong english language speech skills, it is relatively easy for students who choose the profession to find internships and job opportunities. With regard to journalism, which is highly linguistically demanding, it is difficult for chinese students to find a news-related job after graduation, in addition to the difficulty of being admitted when applying。
