Dear Colleagues,

Please remind your interested and qualified students that the deadline for =
applying to Brock University=92s Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture is=
 February 1, 2014.

The Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture draws on theoretical perspectiv=
es, approaches, and methods from various disciplines in the Social Sciences=
 and Humanities, as well as the established interdisciplinary field of Cult=
ural Studies. The study of Popular Culture ranges from traditional textual =
analysis to ethnographic observation and participant interviews, and the th=
emes and topics addressed in the program emphasize both historical and cont=
emporary perspectives. The program espouses no single methodological or the=
oretical perspective.

Given its interdisciplinary character, the program welcomes students from a=
 variety of academic backgrounds, including (but not limited to) Communicat=
ion or Media Studies, English Literature, Film Studies, History, Music, Pol=
itical Science, Sociology, Canadian Studies, and Women's Studies.

 For more information, please visit www.brocku.ca/mapopularculture or conta=
ct Graduate Program Coordinator Amanda Bishop at [email protected].

Brock is a medium-sized (19,000 students) University located in St. Cathari=
nes, Ontario, Canada- approximately one hour from Toronto.
