Overview

Digital media and networked technologies have transformed the ways we share and distribute information, understand the past, participate in politics and interact with each other. 

The MA in Social Media Communications   from Dublin City University examines the complex impact of social media and the internet on multiple aspects of social and political life.

The digital world has changed the terms of engagement in areas as diverse as business, politics and culture: while it can act as a force for good in democratising participation, cultural production, and sharing, it can also be exploitative, introducing new forms of control and surveillance.
