Undergraduate Programme

The undergraduate programme at the School of International Communications is a diverse and exciting range of topics taught by a team of teachers who come from all corners of the globe. Here, students will hear the latest research and ideas from scholars who not only publish their own work internationally but who travel around the world to hear their peers and colleagues debate, theorise and present their work.

The undergraduate programme includes lectures and seminars on the latest technology, on developing theories around how we communicate and on important global trends as they unfold before us.

Teaching modules introduce undergraduates to new worlds of ideas, experiences and challenges and equip them with a truly international perspective. These modules include introductions to communications theory, media studies, communication and culture. Students are also offered options to take modules on the cultural and creative industries, film, game studies, digital media, and a range of other contemporary topics.

Along with the teaching programme, undergraduates will also find an excellent library, including an audio-visual centre for watching films and dvds, sporting facilities and a variety of social events aimed at improving language and communication skills.

We offer the below two undergraduate programmes:

It seems my life has been faring quite smoothly so far. After graduating from UNNC, I successfully enrolled in a master’s programme. After I got my MA, I started my internship at Hill+Knowlton Strategies. Two weeks later, I was accepted as a regular employee. Now it has been one entire year. Time does fly as I routinely deal with my tough clients and work into late night. Occasionally I feel lost while becoming mature. I realize the adults’ world only unfold after you start your career. I start to let things go, and face challenges with a clearer mind, though I still feel confused at times. Deep in my heart, I know there is something extraordinary in myself drowned in spite of the ordinary life. I have developed a passion for self-media since my college years, and all my devotion has been rewarded by a sense of satisfaction, excitement and fulfillment. That is a space I carve out of the time squeezed by work. Life is short, and I hope all of you will find the proper style of your life and where your passion lies. There ought to be something extraordinary buried under the ordinary appearance. Wish you all the best!
