Descripción del programa

Digital technologies have transformed the ways we share and distribute information, understand the past, interact with each other and spend our leisure time. The digital world has changed the terms of engagement with areas as diverse as politics and culture: while it can function as a force for good in democratizing participation, production, and sharing, it can also be exploitative, introducing new forms of control and surveillance. As the digital world pervades all aspects of our lives, traditional media and analog culture are being reshaped in new and complex interrelationships. The master's programme in Media Studies: Digital Cultures (short MS:DC) combines theory and reflection with praxis and making. It will provide you with a wide skill set in digital tools and research methods to become both a media researcher and an active player in a wide range of industries and cultural and heritage organizations in today’s digitally-mediated world.
