The Global Media MA offers a unique perspective on recent developments in contemporary culture. From the use of social networking in ‘the Arab spring’ to the financial crisis facing the Western hemisphere, the process of globalisation has entered a new era. The decisions taken in boardrooms and government departments have found a counterpoint in the voices raised in public spaces, both physical and digital.

Graduate careers include a variety of jobs in the public and private sectors, including journalism, public relations, academic research, local authority management, arts administration, broadcast media, and publishing.
