Course Overview
This Bachelor honours degree Airline Communication Strategy is a 36 months full honours (top-up routes available for holders of a Higher Diploma) programme that is a full three-year honours degree preparing graduates for placement-track roles in airline communications, brand voice and crisis communications at UK carriers.

By the end of the BA in Airline Communication Strategy, you will be able to contribute at graduate management level to airline communications strategy, evidenced by a placement year with a UK carrier communications team.

Delivery draws on the operational realities of UK airline communication strategy (BA), using reference frameworks from International Air Transport Association (IATA), Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) rather than generic business content. The Bachelor is taught by former airline and airport practitioners and paced so that working students can complete assessment work alongside employment.
