Course content

The MSc by Research in Media Geographies allows you to undertake a year-long (full time) or two-year-long (part time) individual programme of personally and professionally enriching research, supervised by our Human Geography academic staff.

Your media geographies research project will be shaped by participation in research activities such as seminars and reading groups, as well as your involvement in one of our established Human Geography research groups.

While this research programme usually finishes after a year (or two years for part-time students), it can be used to progress to the second year (full-time equivalent) of a PhD degree in Human Geography in the appropriate circumstances.
