Applying to MML | MPhil in Screen Media and Cultures
Applying for the MPhil in Screen Media and Cultures
Course code MLM3
Screen media -- from film through television and video to the new digital arts -- are currently the focus of a rich and rapidly evolving array of research initiatives in the humanities and social sciences. The opportunity has never been greater to develop an understanding of the historical and theoretical relations between the moving image and the cultures which gave rise to it, and which have in turn been transformed by it to the extent that they are now unthinkable without it.
The MPhil in Screen Media and Cultures provides advanced training in the interdisciplinary study of the history and theory of modern screen media in relation both to the history and theory of modern culture in general, and to the history and theory of other media (literature, music, the visual arts, architecture). It has been designed both for students whose first degree is in a discipline other than film or media studies, and who wish to develop their existing interests in relation to film and media; and for students whose first degree is in film or media studies, and who wish to develop their existing interests in relation to at least one other discipline.
