 Welcome to the Centre of Global Media and Communication. Here at SOAS we examine global media and digital communication from a diverse and non-western perspective. Our postgraduate programmes, the MA Global Media and Digital Communications and the MA Media in Development are interdisciplinary in nature and provide a unique non-western understanding of the many ways media communicates and mediates with the world and importantly, how populations use media and for which purposes. You will be taught by faculty with specialist expertise on the study of the global media environment in relation to Asian, African and Middle Eastern societies and cultures. We address the global role of mass and digital media in activist contemporary politics, in war and conflict, as well as in processes of exclusion, inequalities, development, participation and empowerment. Our graduates leave SOAS as critically engaged individuals with the analytical skills, specialist knowledge and global perspectives that are valued by top employers. Study at SOAS to understand how media is central to contemporary global concerns.
