The MA/Pg.Dip in interactive media was a full-time, 45-week course. Quote from (then) Course Director, Alan Sekers:
“We expect communications to change faster and deeper over the next decades than they did over the last decades. Far too many of us will be victims of those changes. We’re here to help our students move from being victims, to becoming skilled shapers and surfers of change.”
