What you studyCinematics & PhotographyMedia and Communication StudiesPoliticsSocial PolicyCinematics & PhotographyMedia and Communication Studies
What it isYou study how films and media are made, analyzed, and used in society. This program combines film history and criticism with hands-on creative work in video, photography, and digital media, rather than focusing only on theory or only on production. It suits people who want to understand both the artistic and technical sides of filmmaking and are drawn to creative storytelling across different media formats.This is a one-year diploma focused on how governments design and carry out policies that affect society — things like healthcare, education, welfare, and environmental rules. You study the politics behind policy decisions and learn how social policies actually get made and implemented. It suits people who already have a completed degree or college diploma and want to shift into policy work without committing to another full bachelor's degree.Film Studies teaches you how to analyze movies, television, and visual media critically, plus how to create your own films and photographs.
