Modern Culture and Media
Modern Culture and Media (MCM) is committed to the study of media in the context of the broader examination of modern cultural and social formations.
In research and teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate level, MCM combines the analysis of diverse texts — visual and verbal, literary and historical, theoretical and popular, imaginative and archival — with the study of contemporary theories of representation and cultural production and creative practice in a range of media.
Through studying MCM, students become critically sophisticated and knowledgeable about the theory, history, and analysis of media and cultural forms. They also learn to produce innovative work — whether in theory, media practice, or historical scholarship — that interrogates and transforms conventional understandings of these forms.
Academics
Our curriculum proposes a distinctive subject matter, stresses comparative analysis and theoretical reflection, and highlights the integration of theory and practice, creative thought and critical production.
