Cultural Studies Program

Have you considered Summer School in the School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry? We have undergraduate and postgraduate units available -- Find out more! summer school

The Cultural Studies major enables students to undertake a broad study of culture and the ways in which it can be understood. The major allows you to take core units in Media and Communications, English, Art History and Theory, Sociology and Anthropology as well as dedicated Cultural Studies units on topics such as: media and cultural practice; youth cultures; everyday cultures; consumer identities and practices; popular genre studies; and critical cultural theory.

Cultural Studies is available at second and third year and at fourth year Honours level, but as most units require students to have passed three junior units it is often possible to take Cultural Studies in second semester of your first year.

All Cultural Studies units are available as individual or sets within other majors. Some are cross-listed for other majors. See the Faculty table of cross-listed units for more information.
