About

The Media Cultures - Intermedial and Multimodal Studies master program from Linnaeus University offers a broad media-oriented perspective on narration, meaning making, learning, and truthfulness in art and communication.

Visit programme website for more information

Overview

By integrating intermedial and multimodal perspectives into research on media cultures, you will develop a profound understanding of how various media types interact and influence each other. This can help you develop new insights and approaches to literary analysis that consider the complex relationships between digital, analogue, and physical media.

Several of the courses combine an intermedial or multimodal perspective with different media. The aim of   Media Cultures - Intermedial and Multimodal Studies master program from Linnaeus University  is for you to develop knowledge of relevant, intermedial and multimodal theories and methods, primarily within the fields included in the intermedial research centre (IMS). After the first semester, you can choose courses with an intermedial perspective but also build your master with individual courses. During the third semester, you can study abroad at one on Linnaeus University’s partner universities, or conduct an internship abroad. If you choose not to go abroad, you can choose individual courses of your own choice, offered at Linnaeus University. You write your Master’s thesis in the fourth semester in the main field Comparative Literature but with an intermedial or multimodal perspective.

Career

The programme provides a solid foundation for PhD studies and prepares you for work in publishing, culture, education, information and communication, media, and administration.

Programme Structure

  • The courses in the first semester introduce and problematise the concepts of intermediality and multimodality through thematic and theoretical classes. The courses explore the relationships and interactions between different art forms and media from both intermedial and multimedial perspectives.
  • Students select two to four elective thematic courses in intermediality and multimodal studies. These can be within the main field of study or other subjects.
  • During the third semester, students have the option to study or do a placement abroad or take courses at Linnaeus University.
