The course links core elements and optional subjects from 2 important social science disciplines; from sociology, students are familiarised with the major theoretical perspectives in sociology and specific current issues and debates; the media studies part of the degree provides an understanding of the expanding role of the media in contemporary society; specialist courses taught by leading researchers encourage the critical study of various media, including the broadcasting media, print media, film and new media technologies in both a national and global context; the degree leans towards the proven strengths of sociological analysis of the media, but also includes viewpoints from cultural studies and related research fields; it provides students with an in-depth sociological analysis of the changing roles of media and communications in today�s information societies; the final year dissertation allows students to focus on both of their specialist study areas or build mainly on only 1.
