Media industries and their content are often subject to scrutiny and debates concerning their communicative power and influence, professional practice, ethics and law. Studying enduring issues such as the impact of mass media on audiences will equip you for a career in the industry. The year-long Research Methods module introduces important methodological approaches pertinent to the study of Mass Communications and provides you with a grounding in key skills required for study at Masters level.
Innovative modules such as Digital Cultures will enable you to work on a distinctive collaborative project with the marketing team at Tate Liverpool. You will study the quickly evolving area of new media by analysing contemporary media policies and considering the potential future direction of national and international media regulation.
