About Performance and Media, BA (Hons) - at University of South Wales

Our Performance and Media degree invites you to explore the growing and diverse field of performance by questioning the relationship between live performance and a range of recorded media.

There are also many extracurricular activities that will look impressive on your CV, including public productions, student films and a student radio station.
