Anyone studying CMCI?

i feel like i'm the only one taking this course when i talk to other KCL offer holders.

is anyone else taking culture, media and creative industries?

heard anything good about this course? i applied too but not much info on it online

I also have an offer found out any info yet?

Hey! I’m a first year studying CMCI and I really enjoy it… I’m happy to answer anyone’s questions

hi! I currently have an offer for cmci and I was wondering if you could tell me a bit about what you have actually studied in the course so far and what you have found most interesting etc! also what were ur grades to get in? I'm predicted AAA but think I'm more likely to get AAB or A*AB

The first year core modules are policy and politics (learning about the creative industries, very economics based, have to do some stats work), media 1.0 (learning basic media theories like feminism, semiotics ect.), media 2.0 (audience theories), cultural production (you get to make a video essay but the video quality isn't assessed), culture and identity (looking at subcultures and cultural theorists) and the management. For the optional modules I did fandom and memory.
I you want to do any practical work it isn't the course for you, and tbh if you're mainly interested in media it isn't really the right course either. I was primarily interested in media and wanted to do a theoretical course so I thought this would be the best one, but I've found it quite similar to a level media.
No exams is a big plus though. The seminars are a bit hit or miss- honestly depends on who the lead is and if your group actually participates lol, but I guess that's the same across all university.
Where else have you applied and what are you interested in? I had a contextual so my offer was AAB- so you might have a chance? I think the course was up for clearing so that might be in your favour.

thank you for the info!! I’ve applied to UAL for Media Comms, UCL for Media, Warwick for Media and Leeds as a wildcard for Chinese. I am definitely probably more a production enjoying person but my best bet for that was BCU and I didn’t want to be in Birmingham** I am just hoping my portfolio for UCL will be good enough! Are you overall enjoying the course then or is it not really what you expected?

Hey what do you think about the course, has it helped you gain any internships or anything like that?

What do you mean by if you wanted to study media this isn’t the course for you, what does this course focus mainly on? Also I’m aware this course isn’t very practical, but do we do any assignments that are practical? I heard someone say they did a documentary once
