University College Falmouth (UCF) has launched a new website dedicated to its BA(Hons) Journalism course.
The new site Front Page Falmouth was the brainchild of Anna Kiernan, Head of the Department of Writing, and aims to showcase the unique experience offered to BA(Hons) Journalism students at UCF.
Front Page Falmouth's content ranges from video interviews with current students to the latest news relating to the course, including guest speakers and recent student work.
Anna Kiernan commented: "We wanted to offer all students the chance to find out about the exciting BA(Hons) Journalism course we offer at UCF. Front Page Falmouth provides students with relevant information, whether they are going through the clearing process, planning ahead for next year's UCAS application or currently on the course at UCF."
Front Page Falmouth will be championed by a team of student ambassadors from the BA(Hons) Journalism course, who will be updating the site and managing the Facebook and Twitter profiles that have been created to offer an open dialogue for any questions or queries that future or current students may have.

University College Falmouth is the only independent Higher Education institution in Cornwall with the right to award degrees in its own name. UCF has two campuses - at Woodlane in Falmouth and Tremough in Penryn (which it owns and jointly manages with the University of Exeter).
UCF's merger with Dartington College of Arts in 2008 created a new institution focusing on the expansion of Falmouth's expertise in Art, Design and Media and Dartington's expertise in Dance, Music, Theatre, Art and Writing. The Dartington-based courses are relocating to Cornwall this summer to a high-specification £15.4M Performance Centre at the Tremough Campus that will launch in September 2010, paving the way for the creation of a new specialist Arts University in Cornwall by 2013/2014 that will be unique to the South West.
UCF is a founding partner in the Combined Universities in Cornwall (CUC), a unique initiative to promote regional economic regeneration through Higher Education, funded mainly by the European Union (Objective One and Convergence), the South West Regional Development Agency and the Higher Education Funding Council for England, with support from Cornwall Council.
