Curriculum
Delivered during the autumn and spring terms, the core course consists of a common lecture line and two modules in aesthetics and cultural theory, philosophy and critical theory, or political and cultural globalisation, depending on your chosen specialist area.
You also take a research methods module, which prepares you for the research project by considering the various approaches taken by relevant disciplines, interrogating the requirements of MA-level research and addressing how your intended research topic might best be refined.
The project itself normally consists of 18-20,000 word dissertation (or 12,000 words alongside a video, an installation or studio-based work) in which you apply your knowledge of cultural or critical theory to an issue or text of your choosing. Your work towards this submission is supported by one-to-one project supervision.
The elective modules can take one of three forms:
- a module from another MA course in the humanities programme, or from elsewhere in the College of Arts and Humanities
- a Higher Education Teaching and Learning Course in which you shadow a tutor in the delivery of a module on the undergraduate programme
- a 10,000-word extended essay with regular one-to-one tutorial supervision.
