MA Internet Equalities explores how power relations and structures of oppression are organised, embedded, and perpetuated by the internet across full stack technologies. ‘Stacks’ refer to the tangible layers of technology in its physical architecture – such as data and archives, infrastructure, tools, and code – but also to the essential, less tangible dimensions. These include the ways that the mediating structures through which interdependent digital systems are accessed, experienced and integrated can perpetuate and amplify offline inequalities in online spaces.These layers shape the entire spectrum of knowledge creation and dissemination, impacting who is included in or excluded from digital systems often reinforcing uneven and unequal conditions in distribution, capabilities, literacy, resources, reception, access and use.In your practice-based or practice-led final project, you will address an internet inequality, exploring how the internet can be reimagined and whom it can serve in alternative digital futures that prioritise equity, inclusivity, and justice at every layer of the technology stack.
An applicant will normally be considered for admission if they have achieved an educational level equivalent to an honours degree in either the broad field of science and technology studies, computer science, data science, computing, a joint computer sciences and arts/humanities degree, or a closely related subject. Or, from a creative discipline with substantial computational practice such as:
Graphic design
Interaction design
Interactive media design
Web design
Communication design
Digital design/art
Product design
Educational level may be demonstrated by:
Honours degree (named above);
Possession of equivalent qualifications in a design-related or creative discipline;
Prior experiential learning, the outcome of which can be demonstrated to be equivalent to formal qualifications otherwise required. Your experience is assessed as a learning process and tutors will evaluate that experience for currency, validity, quality and sufficiency;
Or a combination of formal qualifications and experiential learning which, taken together, can be demonstrated to be equivalent to formal qualifications otherwise required.
Applicants without the required qualifications, but with professional experience may be eligible to gain credit for previous learning and experience through the AP(E)L system.
