Journalism advisory Board
In March 2016 the School of Information, Journalism and Communication convened an Advisory Board comprising influential figures from the media industry and the research community.
Together they offer a powerful range of perspectives and insight which will play a key role in the development of our teaching and research activities and help us respond to new developments in the ever-changing media industry.
The Advisory Board's functions are to:
- Advise and support to the department in relation to its teaching, research and contribution to society
- Provide advice on the overall direction and objectives of the School in the light of changes in the media industry
