"Media Studies is the study of the constitution, history, and effects of media on history and on the present day. Media studies employ theories and methods from a number of fields which include political science, political economy, communication, sociology, social theory, literary theory, Media influence, film/video studies, cultural anthropology, cultural studies, philosophy, museum studies, art history/criticism, information theory, and economics. Accordingly Media Studies, a comparably young academic field, differ in the extent to which Media itself are thematic and to what extent a unified definition of Media is attempted.

Media Studies in the tradition of social sciences like communication studies, sociology and economics generally focus on Mass Media, their political, social, economic and cultural role and impact in creating and distributing content to media audiences.

Media Studies in the tradition of humanities like literary theory, film/video studies, cultural studies and philosophy focus on the constitution of media and question in how far they shape what is regarded as knowledge and as communicable."

"The media are central to our experience of modern life. Television, radio, print media, cinema and the internet all channel information, education, politics, art and entertainment. They can build and connect communities locally, nationally and globally, and can influence our views of the world, our identities and our desires. Media studies is about understanding how the media shape the way we live.

We ask questions about how the various media are produced and how they are used and understood by particular audiences, and we approach these questions from a variety of perspectives: theoretical, social, historical, textual, political, creative and practical."
