Master of Arts in Society, Culture and Media

Program Overview

This interdisciplinary programme will allow you to benefit from the expertise of both the School of Sociology and Social Policy and the School of Media and Communication, enabling you to gain an in-depth understanding of key issues, debates and theoretical perspectives, and to critically analyse the relationship between culture, media and society.

Taught by leading researchers in the field, this programme covers key issues and concepts such as: media and social media; consumption; audiences; representation; globalisation; migration and place; tourism; inequality; creative work and material culture.
