MA Media, Culture and Everyday Life

The MA in Media, Culture and Everyday Life offers an exciting opportunity to engage with current debates about the impact of contemporary media on everyday life. The programme addresses the changes, challenges and unprecedented possibilities that digital media brings to everyday life in the twenty-first century, as well as a wider historical context. By exploring the ways in which media and everyday life are intertwined, this course addresses broader questions of modernity and social change, ranging from experiences of everyday space, time and mobility, to the impacts of media on self and identity, how we access, ‘store’ or remember the past, and the broader environmental, infrastructural and social impacts of digital technologies.
Informed by cutting-edge research in the field of cultural, media and communication studies, the programme is widely interdisciplinary in scope, drawing on perspectives from cultural studies, anthropology, philosophy, cultural geography, visual culture, urban studies, games and memory studies.

The programme is built around three core modules which focus on:
The study of contemporary and past forms of media, in order to understand the historical origins or predecessors of today’s media, and how media change is produced, experienced and negotiated.
Reflection on the role of contemporary media technologies in social and cultural life, drawing on your own everyday experience of media.
Research methods and approaches used in the study of media, culture and everyday life.
