Description

The Bedfordshire Institute of Media and the Creative & Performing Arts aims to produce world-class practitioners for the creative industries. We provide students with excellent facilities, innovative courses and committed teaching by professional practitioners and established experts. The Guardian 2007 league table placed Bedfordshire 3rd in the country for media-related courses, and in the 2008 National Student Survey students ranked Dance as 2nd and Journalism as 6th in the country.

Our courses are designed to bring out your full creative potential and provide a dynamic environment in which tomorrow's filmmakers, journalists, artists, actors, dancers, scriptwriters and designers work alongside each other. We ensure that our courses are specifically tailored to meet the needs of our students and are geared towards fully equipping them with the necessary knowledge and skills to succeed and secure employment after graduating. We have strong links with industry including international companies such as JVC, and national organisations such as the BBC.

Students benefit from our proximity to London, home to national and international media companies, galleries and performance venues.
