“During the course we will consider what people can do on Facebook and Twitter, and how they can be used for communication and marketing purposes.

“There has been significant interest in the course already, and it will definitely appeal to students looking to go into professions including journalism and PR,” he added.

Hickman also described what the course entails.

“In my opinion, the course does entail synoptic research and scholarly activity, which are the fundamental criteria for Masters degrees,” he said.

“It’s very relevant and very scholarly. It’s a new course, but its importance is unquestionable.

“Social media is very important for jobs within the marketing and communications sector, as a skill set within other jobs, and as an industry within itself,” he added. (ANI)
