Course content

This Master's is designed to attract students from film, literature and media based undergraduate degrees, who have studied some statistics, and who wish to develop their analytical skills to understand the economic and political context of the industries in which they hope to pursue their careers. If you are an economics graduate, the course will enable you to understand the media better.

The course will equip you with the skills required to enter a career in the business aspect of the media (eg account executives in advertising, a career in publishing, finance and management positions in broadcasting).

You will take compulsory modules in economic concept and econometric methods, the economics and politics of the mass media and the international political economy. You will also have the opportunity to study optional modules from the School of Political, Social and International Studies and the School of Economics.
