Course summary
The Digital Media: Critical Studies MA is for students who wish to critically investigate the significance and interpretation of digital media. Students explore media and cultural theories and methods relevant to the analysis of media texts, audiences, users and digital cultures. Optional modules offer students the opportunity to focus on specific topics, such as digital games, gender in digital media, and mobile media in more depth. During their final term, students undertake independent research on a relevant topic of their choice with the support of a supervisor. Modular (flexible) students - Some postgraduate taught and MRes programmes are available on a modular basis. Modular study lasts between 2 and 5 years. This is different to a part-time study which lasts for a fixed period.
