Comms and Creative Event
It was really fun meeting all the students - they were very bright, engaging and seemed to really value the help and advice we gave them.
Date/times/location: Wednesday 5 February 2020 14.30 to 17.30 - Student Services Centre, Bene't Street Cambridge CB2 3PT Description of event: As creative as it is technical, this event remains the prime focus for Cambridge students who want to find out more about careers in Advertising/Marketing/PR; Film/TV/radio; journalism; publishing; science communications, media management and media law. Many of our alumni now working in these dynamic areas attended our events. It is part of our series of ‘pop-up’ events, providing the opportunity for networking without the necessity for large display stands, marketing material and the associated logistics. Open To: National and local media organisations who take on graduates; media course providers and media industry associations; individual graduates who work in the media; and, if space allows, relevant student societies. Cost: £100 plus VAT to organisations/course providers/associations (who may bring one banner stand - max 80cm). Free charge for individuals attending on their own behalf. Further Information: Benefits to organisations include a chance to get the facts of media life across to enthusiastic students who are willing to learn; free publicity and free information about your organisation on the Media section of our website, and in the event programme, live as an online flip-book for a year.
