Undergraduate Study

Courses from many subjects can lead to a degree majoring in Cultural Studies. Our first-year courses are taught within a wide range of programmes including American Studies, Antarctic Studies, Anthropology, Art History and Theory, Cinema Studies, English, Gender Studies, Geography, History, Māori and Indigenous Studies, Media and Communication, Religious Studies, Sociology, and Theatre and Film Studies.

Our programme is constructed so that students with a variety of backgrounds will converge in the 200 and 300-level core courses.

At 200-level courses become more specialised and the structure of the programme develops a sharper focus. The compulsory 300-level course combines theory with practical research, while the numerous optional courses at that level offer a taste of the advanced specialised work that is an excellent basis for postgraduate work.
