Saturday 19th July 2008 at Lancaster University
This is a free to attend event for Postgraduate students involved in the Higher Education teaching
of Media and Cultural studies to share experiences, develop collaborative exchanges and face the
unique issues and concerns affecting postgraduate tutors within the field.
The symposium will include roundtable and panel sessions on teaching Media and Cultural
Studies, talks on the activities of University and College Union and Higher Education Academy Art
Design Media Subject Centre (ADM-HEA), and practice focused workshop sessions.
Postgraduate student participants will be asked to contribute position papers that will be made

roundtable sessions. There will be opportunities for participants to co-chair sessions and present
their papers in sessions. Participating members of the ICR and Lancaster University will include Dr
