Media and Cultural Studies BA Hons

We live in a multicultural society and media-saturated world. Most of what we know about the world comes to us through the media but how much do we know about the media Whether as sources of information, producers of entertainment or modes of creative self-expression, contemporary media are all too seldom subject to intense scrutiny and critical interrogation, except during feverish moments of scandal, crisis or panic. The Media and Cultural Studies degree provides you with the theoretical insights, analytical skills and wide-ranging knowledge needed to explore the production, meaning and consumption of media and cultural products, to investigate their social, economic and political significance, and to recognise their key role in shaping who we are, what we think, and what we value.
