Course content
The Digital Media, Culture and Society MA is an innovative programme that stays responsive to key developments in contemporary digital media, culture and society.
The programme is aimed at both professionals and media graduates wishing to pursue or develop their interests in how advances in digital media shape our cultural, political and social lives.
The course engages with some of the most exciting and pressing issues of our time, such as activism, big data, the cultural and creative economy, participatory and creative media, everyday life, future cities, social wellbeing and identity.
It covers key theoretical debates, drawing from local, national and global contexts to help you develop the critical and methodological skills necessary for researching the role of digital technologies in culture and society.
Our knowledge-exchange activities engage us with diverse businesses, communities and policy actors including media, publishers, digital companies, community groups and NGOs, which will allow you to make professional contacts during your studies.
The course offers flexible modes of study through online distance or campus learning – full-time or part-time. There are also opportunities to complete shorter programmes at both certificate and diploma level.
