Global Media and Society MA

Lancaster University

MA Global Media and Society focuses on these issues by drawing on a wide range of academic fields and professional expertise. You will dissect key issues in media and technology and explore intersections with social inequalities, gender, sustainability, consumerism and fandom, activism and decolonising. You’ll consider how creative media and digital transformation can both reproduce global social inequalities and be used as a tool for justice and cultural participation across societies. Our goal is to advance your skills in the kinds of critical thinking, independent research, and creative problem solving that are needed to lead development and innovation in the media and broader cultural sectors. Our academics contribute to the public debate on key issues in media culture, so you can be confident you’ll be part of a vibrant community at the forefront of the latest thinking. Plus, you’ll have access to the latest digital media equipment to help you complete your practical coursework. Your personal academic tutor will be on hand throughout to discuss your progress on a one-to-one basis.
