If your answer is yes to any of the above, then the new Diploma in Chinese Media & Communication (CMC) is for you. CMC is designed for students seeking a career in the Chinese print, broadcast and interactive media.

The course covers a range of exciting and creative modules such as Writing for Chinese Media, Visual Communication, Copywriting & Advertising, Radio Production and Video Production. Besides media studies modules, you will also learn Chinese language, literature, culture, translation and interpretation skills.

In your final year, you will spend one semester working on an industry project or interning at a top overseas or local media company.

You will also enjoy an Overseas Immersion Programme, where you will appreciate the Chinese culture and language first-hand as well as attend classes at a Chinese media university.

As a bilingual media practitioner, you will be able to work in this growing Chinese-language media industry as a print, broadcast or online journalist, producer, translator or interpreter, copywriter or advertising, PR and marketing communications executive.
