Overview
The Media, Communication and Cultural Analysis programme from Södertörn University is designed to provide you with comprehensive knowledge about the theory and practice of the media, and for you to acquire skills in problem solving, advanced analysis, and project completion. The programme thus prepares you for a broad range of professional careers within the media sector; it is also designed to prepare you for doctoral studies within the field of media and communication, nationally and internationally.
What you'll study
The programme provides you with the knowledge to critically engage with the current hyper-mediated society from a critical and historically informed perspective. Central contemporary media technologies and production processes are analysed with the help of central traditions of media theory.
The third semester of the programme is devoted to optional courses, allowing you to specialise in topics closely related to your intended dissertation subject, and even to study these courses at another university in Sweden or abroad.
