DescriptionTrent's Cultural Studies graduate programs emphasize research and research creation. Students immerse themselves in a thriving local arts community as they pursue discussions surrounding culture and technology, environmental communication, gender and the body, science as knowledge, discourse, and narrative, social and political theory, and media theory.

In Cultural Studies at Trent, you will explore the very foundations of the systems of belief that will determine our future. This program offers an environment that encourages the kind of creative and critical thought that will prepare you for the challenges of the workplace, and for the opportunities of a rewarding life of cultural and political inquiry. Working with your fellow students and professors as part of a closely-knit community, you will read and reflect in your coursework, and then write a critical or creative project to take your thinking to the next level.

Students in the M.A. program can choose between a one-year option with a major research paper, or a two-year thesis option. The program invites proposals for academic projects, as well as for projects invested in research creation, in which your artistic production plays a major role.
