About BA (hons) Advertising in University of East London (UEL)

The world is filled with advertising. From street billboards to TV catchphrases, from the back of newspapers to the front of football shirts, from internet pop-ups to… well, anywhere with an empty space to fill. It’s a huge, rich part of our everyday life and cultural experience – and it’s changing fast.

At the University of East London, we offer you a unique insight into this exciting, swift-moving world. You’ll learn all about the advertising industry: what it does, how it works and how it’s changing in relation to the world that it shapes and that helps shape it.

You’ll learn about branding, market research techniques and digital media production, and take a detailed look at how today’s consumer society works. 

Guided by industry experts, you’ll have the best chance not just to study but also to learn while at work in this ever-expanding industry.

You’ll be involved in work placements and consumer research projects. We’ll give you the chance to study everything from promotional media practices to photography and cultural theory while you also learn the best media and digital production skills.
