Summary

Our MA Media and Creative Industries programme will enable you to develop a detailed understanding of media and cultural theories, history, cultural policy, gender, and social movements in one of the world’s principal cities for communications and media.

Our popular MA Media and Creative Industries programme examines the ways in which individuals, groups, and organisations produce, consume and use media to fashion identities and forge relationships, whilst considering the influence of history, cultural policy, gender, language, race, sexuality and social movements. In addition, you will gain hands on experience of identifying, framing and resolving practice oriented and real-world based challenges and problems, using creativity, critical enquiry and appropriate tools to achieve valuable and relevant solutions.

As part of your MA Media and Creative Industries studies, you will learn from a passionate faculty of leading professionals and academics, offering a vibrant insight into the media and creative industries, through the sharing of specialised knowledge in information science, law, anthropology, political economy, political and social theory, ethnic studies and more.

The Institute provides students with a profound understanding of how the media and creative sectors operate by sharing knowledge and expertise from a range of industries, including film, television and the press; social media, and the Internet; the arts, tourism and international development.
