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
Education
The University of Amsterdam offers various Bachelor's and Master's programs in Communication Science.
