Welcome!
The research and teaching at the Department fall broadly within the
scope of Information and Media Studies.
The Departments research in Information Studies includes
historical, sociological, communicative, and design-oriented
approaches to the study of the development and application of
information technology on the level of individuals, organisations,
and society.
The Department's research in Media Studies includes projects
concerning production aesthetics, textual analysis, and reception
within print media, radio, TV, film, and the internet, as well as
topics concerning the theory, policy, history, and institution of
the media.
Between these two fields, where Information and Media studies
increasingly meet, research is carried out in areas such as IT and
Learning, the Internet, and Multimedia.
