Description

The Working in Communication placement module will help prepare students for the world of work. Students will engage with an organisation in the public, private, or third sector to apply and expand their learning in visual, written, multimodal, intercultural, health communication, among other critical topics explored in the course. A key feature of the course for our students is the transference and applicability of their learning for a wide range of communicative and professional settings. This module is an opportunity for students to apply and expand their critical and communicative skills and practices to address and contribute to solving problems in real-world contexts.
