Communication Science
Media and communication are omnipresent
The impact of media and communication on individuals, groups, and society is central in both societal debates and research. Communication Science studies the contents, uses, and consequences of media and communication.
How does the internet affect young people's lives? What is the role of media and communication in political participation and citizenship? What are the effects of health communication, advertising, and PR campaigns?
Research
Research in communication science is organised in the Amsterdam School of Communication Research (ASCoR) in four programme groups:
Corporate Communication
Persuasive Communication
Political Communication and Journalism
Youth and Media Entertainment
