Course summary

The BA Digital Media, Culture and History of Art combined degree at SOAS University of London offers a dynamic and interdisciplinary education that explores the intersections of digital media, cultural practices, and the history of art. This innovative programme enables students to critically engage with the ways in which digital technologies impact artistic expression and cultural representation, while also acquiring essential skills in digital media production and analysis.In the Digital Media component, students examine how digital technologies shape communication, creativity, and cultural engagement in contemporary society. The curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including social media, digital storytelling, content creation, and the implications of digital platforms for cultural representation and identity. Students learn to critically analyse digital media texts and practices, exploring the role of technology in the production and dissemination of art and culture. Practical training in digital media production equips students with the skills to create compelling digital content, enhancing their understanding of the contemporary media landscape and its influence on artistic practices.The History of Art component provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the development of visual culture and artistic movements across different periods and regions. The curriculum examines key themes such as style, medium, and the socio-political contexts in which art is produced. Students explore a variety of art forms, from traditional to contemporary, developing critical skills in visual analysis and interpretation. This component encourages students to reflect on the cultural significance of art and its role in shaping identity, memory, and historical narratives.By combining these two disciplines, the BA Digital Media, Culture and History of Art programme equips graduates with a unique blend of critical analytical skills, artistic insight, and digital literacy. This interdisciplinary approach prepares students for diverse career opportunities in media, cultural production, art education, gallery management, and curatorial practice, empowering them to contribute meaningfully to discussions about the role of digital media in shaping artistic narratives and the cultural landscape in a globalised world.
