"TV and journalism were always things I’d been interested in. The BA programme stood out as an internationally recognised degree, offering specialised papers in fields like TV journalism.

"I’m currently working as a Production Coordinator for Warner Brothers - first I worked on The Block S8 and now I’m working on Married at First Sight S3. I’m a huge reality TV fan so this is basically my dream job. My role is to coordinate movements of cast and crew on day to day shoots. I also get to be involved in the pre-production process, scout locations and communicate with our cast.

"My study helped immensely for so many reasons. It taught me valuable and practical skills in the field, which I now use on a day to day basis. It grew my network which is a crucial part of working as a freelancer.

It’s an amazing degree because you can be creative and forward-thinking and practical all at the same time! A BA can take you wherever you want it to.

"A BA gives you a degree that is super flexible and can change with you throughout your degree.

"Finally, it helped me discover my passion - TV production was something I knew absolutely nothing about before my BA and it turned out it was something I really enjoy!"
