Cultural Studies is an elective course that aims to introduce students to the growing field of study involving aspects of contemporary culture and its influences across the globe. Students will engage with topics related to culture in three ways. First, the understanding of culture in terms of the world and how space and place defines us. Second, we will look at social structures and how it influences marginalized groups. Finally, we will explore how people enjoy and make use of various forms of culture and the varying needs they fulfill in our everyday lives.

There is no textbook for this course. Worksheets and terminology lists will be uploaded onto Moodle throughout the semester.
