The course recognises the central role played by literacy in our society. The written language is a key factor in social organisation and cultural development, and the medium of a wide range of communication technologies. It is often claimed that the central role of reading and texts is one of the most important characteristics of modern societies.
A good understanding of the various aspects of literacy, both contemporary and historical, is therefore essential for a full understanding of how this society works, and forms a key asset for efficient participation therein.
In order to be admitted to MA in Literacy Studies you should graduate from a Bachelor's degree/Teacher's degree which includes at least 80 study points/ECTS of English Language and Literature, or another background that is deemed suitable.
