What it is	You study the creative and business sides of art, film, design, and performance.

Communications at Glendon teaches you how media, visual culture, and marketing work in practice and in theory.

You'll study both the theory behind how messages reach audiences and the practical skills to create them yourself. It suits people who want to understand media industries from the inside and are ready to work across different formats rather than specializing in just one.
