Two important aspects of media at Nottingham Trent are our collaborations with the creative industries in the UK; and the first-rate commitment to internationalisation in all that we do, encompassing mobility for the student body and a global curriculum. All undergraduate students complete a media industry placement, and many choose to engage with the opportunities for international learning about the media in our partner universities worldwide.
