Programme structure

Course content

Drawing upon staff expertise in digital media and digital society, it’ll give you grounding in four aspects of digital media, allowing you to specialise in a specific area, or develop your understanding of all of the following:
Theorising digital society
Digital practices
Digital methods
Digital research

You’ll get the opportunity to think about digital media developments in relation to a range of social issues, such as gender, race, intimacy, surveillance, science, cultural theory, and visual, qualitative and quantitative methods.

As a student within the Faculty of Social Sciences, you’ll also benefit from the research and training activities of both the University’s Sheffield Methods Institute and the faculty-wide Digital Society Network, the latter of which brings together interdisciplinary researchers engaged in research at the cutting-edge of society-technology interactions.
