Study Level

Masters

The MA Digital Media degree combines practical and theoretical approaches to contemporary media and technology. Students will gain an understanding of digital transformations in media, culture and society and apply this understanding in practice, in the media and creative industries and in further research. Students will also be equipped with skills that can be applied to current and future developments in digital media, social media, computing and other aspects of technology. The programme is defined by its resistance to technological determinism and its insistence on the importance of addressing the social and historical contexts within which a range of media technologies are employed. In order to provide a contextual framework and facilitate the conceptualisation of digital media and technologies as fully cultural forms and processes, the programme will draw on a range of disciplines including: media and cultural studies, sociology, anthropology and philosophy. However, the programme will remain focused on key contemporary concerns about the potential role of digital media in society and on refiguring the contours of the 'new' media debate.
