Philosophy and Media BA (Hons)

We are continually dealing with representations of the world, through cinema, television, magazines, the internet, and through how people speak to each other. What should we think of the relation between these representations and the reality they attempt to represent?<br/><br/>Our BA Philosophy and Media degree allows you to learn more about how various media function and to examine the philosophical issues surrounding our attempts to represent the world. You’ll develop practical and theoretical knowledge of how<br/>various media techniques are implemented, whilst exploring and challenging the assumptions that frame the way we think, act and see the world around us.
