Overview
Media and Cultural Studies is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.
Teaching in Cultural Studies is assessed mainly through extended written work rather than examinations.
If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
Entry requirements
Careers opportunities
These degrees train you to gather evidence and argue from it, which is what the research, policy and analysis market buys. Very little of the work is labelled with the subject's name, so the destinations are broad and the skills need to be named explicitly on an application.
Roles graduates go into
- Research or data analyst
- Policy officer
- Social researcher
- Programme or project officer
- Consultant
- Caseworker or support practitioner
Where they work
- Government departments and local authorities
- Research agencies and think tanks
- Charities and international organisations
- Consultancies and market research
- Universities
A master's is close to standard for research and policy posts, and some routes, such as social work, require a qualifying degree and registration to practise.
