COURSE OVERVIEW
How can scholars keep pace with the rapidly changing field of digital media, design and culture? Is it possible to learn academic research skills, approaches and methods that facilitate the understanding of both current forms of digital culture and the anticipation of future developments in digital media? The MA Digital Media Culture at Birkbeck introduces you to the key intellectual debates, discussions and texts shaping the field of digital culture and media theory.
This course provides you with the conceptual framework required to analyse and comprehend the digital environments of today and tomorrow. It is one of the only MA degrees in the UK to combine academic rigour and scholarly consideration with the opportunity for hands-on training in digital media design and management. The philosophy of the course is that critical thinking about digital culture is enhanced by direct exposure to digital media software, technologies and design practices.
MA Digital Media Culture graduates will be well positioned to pursue further academic study at PhD level, or work within digital media and design industries.
A second-class honours degree (2:2 or above) in any related subject. Applications are reviewed on their individual merits and your professional qualifications and/or relevant work experience will be taken into consideration positively.
