Overview

Program Description The Media, Communication and Development MA is an interdisciplinary course that teaches main theories, concepts, case studies and practical media skills around the theme of media and development and its implications for less developed countries. The course will provide students with a unique blend of theory and practice teaching, aimed at deepening knowledge of the history of communications within the development process of emerging economies. It will critically evaluate the impact of international and regional institutions from a critical political economic perspective. Teaching by academic staff, guest lecturers and other carefully selected staff from development organisations will provide students with an overview of the policies, actions and impact of state and non-state institutions within the area of communication media and development. A distinctive feature is its emphasis on the practical role of communication media in development. Students will participate in media production workshops and take part in an internship programme, offered in partnership with media and development organisations in London. As part of the work experience module, students participate in an extensive NGOs and media seminar series featuring experts and panel discussions. The work placement programme is in line with the University of Westminster’s strategy of nurturing of the critical practitioner.
