Media and Cultural Studies at Sussex gives you a unique perspective, a diverse set of skills and the ability to explore everyday lives in a globalised media world. Our course is distinctive because we spend as much time examining the attractions of popular and high culture as we do investigating their social worth. And with 24/7 access to specialist facilities – including a news room, edit suites and a sound-proofed studio – you can access the equipment you need whenever suits you.

Write for our student newspaper, or present a programme on our television channel or radio station – you’ll have the chance to develop real-world skills outside the classroom. Our expert teaching, combined with support from our careers team, means you develop key skills in communication, critical thinking, understanding human behaviour and working to deadlines. You’ll be prepared for a future in a range of sectors including television, marketing, advertising, public relations, museums and cultural heritage, and festival organisation.
