  • the role and function of the media in democratic societies (and how these are affected by market considerations and technological advancements) 
  • the impact of mass media on global political processes 
  • research methods used in media and communication research.

You'll able to pursue your own specific research/study interest in political communication via a 12,000-15,000 word dissertation and by choosing three further modules from a range of other M-level modules provided by the department or wider school.
