Projet de Journée d'étude en communication, médias et culture

Organisateur·ices : Jayson Harsin (AUP) et Camila Moreira Cesar (USN)

AUP’s Center for Media, Communication & Global Change will host a research exchange (journée d’étude) with Sorbonne Nouvelle University’s Institut de Recherche Médias, Cultures, Communication et Numérique (IRMÉCCEN). The event is oriented towards enriching intellectual exchange about research in progress, between institutional traditions and histories.  

In particular the event’s objectives are:

• to stimulate bilingual dialogue and reciprocal feedback on individual research projects (professors, Ph.D students, Ph.D graduates, postdoctoral researchers),
• to stimulate the exchange of ideas among researchers of different research orientations,
• to strengthen applications of method and analyses; and build theories.
• To build future collective research projects

The event is bilingual; presentations and conversations in French or English are welcome.
