In these courses, students examine media institutions and the larger structures and frameworks - social, cultural, economic, and political - that shape media and communications.
Forms
In these courses, students learn the structural elements, patterns, and formal systems that define digital, textual, and aural media, developing a critical vocabulary that informs their own media practice.
Practice
