You’ll learn about the workings of social media platforms, how to construct and analyse digital objects such as memes, and how to design and execute a digital media research project.
- A component that provides a broader grounding in communication and media studies will teach you the key concepts and developments in media studies. This ensures that you’ll graduate with knowledge of how pre-digital and digital media systems are distinct from one another.
