Profile
Human interactions and tech are key to many things in human life. On a private level, they not only shape our identity, but also affect our attitudes and behaviours (think of how smartphone use influences the things we like, see and buy). On an organisational level, interactions foster for example organisational identification and leadership.
Finally, on a societal level, social interactions both facilitate and hamper issues like polarisation, democratic distrust, and inequality. This challenging programme addresses all three levels and will help you understand how interaction processes work and will equip you with the skills needed to tackle the social-technical problems of today.
In our modules, we combine relevant subdisciplines of communication science like organisational communication, marketing communication and media communication with related disciplines such as social psychology and human-tech interaction.
During the first two years, you will take four modules a year, each focusing on a particular socio-technical problem which you will explore in depth during lectures and workshops. Every module has a duration of 10 weeks and is worth 15 EC. Furthermore, each module consists of four components: Project, Theory, Research and Academic & Professional Skills. Each module centres on a Project which reflects a contemporary global challenge. To solve this challenge, you will get input from the other module components.
Assessment methods will vary from individual written tests, and individual and group assignments to oral tests and individual and group presentations.
