Cultural Data Management and Communications MA

What have you learnt on the course?

One of the aspects that has been taught is how you use visualisation to explain your data, which means people who don't work in humanities are able to read your work and understand. You'll be able to explain complex concepts. I also enjoy learning about Digital Culture, where we ask questions like does technology affect culture or does culture affect technology?

Can you specialise to suit your interests?

We have opportunities to choose different projects we are interested in: digital objects, apps, websites, display exhibitions. My interest is to look at social issues and how they are represented using cartoons.

What's next?

I wish to work in teaching and research. I also have an interest in consultancy and working with people who create digital contents.
