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?
This BA Philosophy and Media degree allows students to learn more about how various media function and to examine the philosophical issues surrounding our attempts to represent the world. Students will develop practical and theoretical knowledge of how various media techniques are implemented, whilst exploring and challenging the assumptions that frame the way we think, act and see the world around us.
All the philosophy lecturers are active researchers, so they'll share the excitement of doing original work in a supportive and highly-rated academic community. The Philosophy team is in the top 15 in the Guardian League Table 2019 and rates as one of the 100 best Philosophy departments worldwide in the 2017 QS rankings. The media staff are academics and practitioners in the creative industries and will give them the knowledge and understanding to be successful for a career in media.
