MA Program

Ranked #2 by the Eduniversal Worldwide Best Masters Ranking in Cultural Management/Creative Industries Management, the Master Program in Culture Studies is aimed at students from the Humanities and Social Sciences, but not exclusively, interested in a structured discussion of cultural phenomena in the global world.

The MA in Culture Studies is organized around a core course of theory and practice-based seminars. Each seminar provides a broad scope for interdisciplinary interaction through the interplay between disciplines ranging across the fields of Cultural Studies, Literary and Artistic Studies, Performance, Translation, Media and Visual Studies as well as Cultural Management.

The MA in Culture Studies takes into direct consideration the ever-increasing value that the arts and culture offer to the understanding and the identity of nations and individuals, as well as the importance of the creative economy in an era marked by globalization, flux and rapid cultural dissemination.

Based upon an innovative training model and collaborative effort between academic and cultural institutions, the program operates through epistemological reciprocity, demonstrating how cultural practices illuminate critical reflection.

The first year is curricular and requires the completion of 60 ECTS. The second year is dedicated to the final assignment: dissertation, project, or internship. During the second year, students take a research seminar each semester to monitor their progress.

The program is entirely taught in English.
