Here, you will pick up professional knowledge and skills in journalism, radio production, video production, web design, advertising and public relations. Modules in Chinese literature, history and translation will help you build a strong foundation in the Chinese language and culture. You will also attend off-campus classes at the Singapore Media Academy to learn TV studio production skills, and sharpen your media presentation skills.

CMC grads can enjoy up to a semester’s exemption for relevant degree programmes at the Nanyang Technological University and the National University of Singapore.
