Critical Theory (Research)

Through your own unique research:

• develop your knowledge of critical theory

• learn to apply critical theory approaches to contemporary social, political and cultural phenomena

Much of our work is guided by a transnational and transcultural agenda. You'll be studying in an environment with a strong interdisciplinary and international perspective. This provides a stimulating and vibrant community with debate encouraged between staff and students.
