Overview

The compulsory module Critical and Creative Media Research, lays the foundation for the programme in semester one, building key skills for developing a research project. This is followed by a second compulsory module Media Theory in the second semester which provides the theoretical spine that underpins the subject. Together, these modules set students up for the final dissertation or project. All other modules during semesters one and two are elective. Students have the freedom to choose individual routes through the programme by selecting from our range of modules or by following one of our 3 pathways: Creative Media, Society and Justice, and History and Culture. Students may also take a number of media related modules from across a range of other subjects available at Maynooth University. The MA programme culminates with a supervised individual project that may assume a variety of forms, from a scholarly essay to an empirical study to a practice-based project, where creative outcomes are contextualised and framed theoretically. A postgraduate diploma is available to students who do not wish to complete the final dissertation/project.
