The PhD in Communication, New Media, and Cultural Studies at McMaster University is an interdisciplinary doctoral programme that draws together Communication Studies, Media Arts, and English and Cultural Studies. It trains students to analyze contemporary communication and cultural problems through combined coursework, comprehensive field examinations, and a culminating dissertation, which may be submitted as written scholarship, a creative project, or a combination of both. Faculty from multiple humanities departments supervise doctoral research spanning media theory, cultural analysis, and communication practice, preparing graduates to enter academic, artistic, or other professional fields. The programme sits within McMaster's School of Graduate Studies and is completed on a full-time basis over a nominal four years, with typical entry in September and an application deadline in mid-January.
