The Department

The Department of Media and Communications at Goldsmiths is one of the 
UK’s leaders in the field of media theory and media practice. The 
theoretical and empirical research of our staff is recognised as having 
been at the forefront of media and cultural studies for the past two 
decades, and is the focus of a thriving research and postgraduate 
community. The 2008 RAE exercise placed Goldsmiths’ Media and 
Communications Department among the top four in the country for this 
subject area. Eighty percent of work submitted fell within the two 
highest bands - that is to say ‘World Leading’ and ‘Internationally 
Excellent’.

Goldsmiths is a lively and challenging place to do a Media and 
Communications degree and one that recognises the importance of 
supporting learning with high quality teaching. We were awarded an 
excellent mark (22/24) by a team from the national Quality Assurance 
Agency, whose task it is to assess teaching and learning in 
universities. This is one of the best marks awarded to a Media and 
Communications Department in Britain.

We currently offer the following range of programmes:
Five Degree Programmes
Sixteen Masters Programmes (Practice and Theory)
An MPhil/PhD Programme
