    I studied MA Media Practice in Development and Social Change. The course focused on how media can be used to bring about global social and political change whilst analysing development theory and social change. This course allowed me to build on the knowledge gained during my undergraduate degree whilst allowing me to learn media practice and production skills. I have also refined my research and writing skills.
