What does a typical graduate from your major go on to do? First of all, there is no such thing as a “typical” graduate in a field as broad and kaleidoscopic as “culture and media.” Having said that, our graduates have gone on to work in fields such as: Online research (government, corporate, non-profit, etc.) Media ethnography (demographic, usage, etc.) Consultancies Market research Advertizing Public relations Digital strategies Semiotic analysis Entertainment Leisure Museum and Archiving Etc. What does a typical graduate from your major go on to do? Our graduates do this by honing skills as: Content providers (writers, directors, producers, etc.) Technical managers Campaigners and coordinators Academics Media commentators and experts Journalists, professional bloggers, reviewers Artists Activists (NGOs) Administrators Curators Entrepreneurs Etc. Quite simply . . . The sky is the limit for anyone who knows how to use media to interpret and influence culture, and vice versa. In a world that has become absolutely regulated by the “symbolic economies” of “cultural capitalism” – a sophisticated understanding of the mechanisms and forces at work within these systems and structures can be an invaluable asset to any employer. Which systems and structures exactly? All of them! . . . since any system or structure created by a human – or even considered by a human – is, by default, cultural. From fashion to architecture to art to politics to cinema to war to travel, a working knowledge of the elementary particles of our society, and the way they intersect, makes you a desirable employee (at least for those who value those who can intelligently and effectively “read between the pixels”).
