Graduates who work in community radio can now get 20% off the cost of Birmingham School of Media’s MA in Radio and Audio Production, thanks to a new bursary.
The MA Radio Bursary provides a 20% discount on course fees to the Radio and Audio Production masters degree. Resulting in a course fee of just £4,800 for full-time students and £2,400 for part-time students.
How the course works
“The course allows up and coming radio producers to really develop their practical skills, experience and knowledge, to ensure they’re ready for today's industry.
"We also make great use of the University’s seven new production studios, multi-track editing systems and audio recorders, within the digital radio suite of its Parkside Building."
Who is eligible?
To be eligible for the discount applicants need to:
- Be a regular volunteer to a community radio station (hospital radio / online stations / RSL broadcasters may also be considered).
- Provide two endorsements from the radio sector about your suitability to study on the MA in Radio and Audio Production course after applying.
As part of MA Radio Bursary, students will be required to contribute to the University radio station, either as a presenter or by mentoring undergraduate students.
