1990s Culture Studies

Just before social media changed the world forever, the 1990s was a pivotal decade.

Delve into the fashion, music, politics and social movements of the 1990s through sustained academic study..

Various pathways available through optional modules, culminating in an extended dissertation.

Key information

What is 1990s Culture Studies

1990s Culture Studies is the interdisciplinary study of the social, political, cultural and technological transformations that shaped the final decade of the twentieth century. Drawing upon history, sociology, media, politics and cultural theory, it examines how the 1990s influenced contemporary identities, institutions, popular culture and the emergence of the modern digital world. 

Mode of Delivery

Asynchronous lectures, reading materials and extensive resources are shared on our Moodle platform to which you will be granted access. The course is delivered entirely online, under the guidance of our expert lecturers and academic staff. The academic year begins in September but you can also enter the programme in January.

What do you study

Broadly similar to a three year undergraduate degree, there are three levels (levels 4 to 6). In level 4 (year 1) you will study four core modules to give you the foundations of culture studies. In year 2 you study at level 5, with further core modules to advance your knowledge, and begin to make choices from our optional modules. In year 3 you will specialise by choosing from a variety of optional modules, and complete your dissertation on a topic chosen in collaboration with the academic staff and your supervisor. The modules are detailed below.

Cost

Each 15 credit module is £200, with a 30 credit module costing £400. This includes everything for the module, with no hidden cost. The entire programme therefore costs £4800, but you can study a module at a time and exit the programme when you wish. You will receive a certificate for each module, and a certificate of completion should you exit early which summarises the extent of your study.

Founding Cohort Discount

As these programmes are new, we are offering a limited number of places with a scholarship discount of 80%. T&Cs apply. This is an excellent opportunity to learn something new, and be involved with the development of a new course, at a really low cost. Email us today to find out more (info@wessexacademia.co.uk).
