Course Curriculum:
It's been only two weeks into studying so I can't say much. But yeah, my course is up to date with all the latest media practices. The covid lockdown has affected the practical and industrial exposure, but as soon as the relaxation begins, we'll have them as well.
Fees:
£14,460 (Indian students get a discount of about £2000-2500 as per some UK government scheme)
