New Master's programme with focus on the digital society At the Centre for Media, Communication and Information Research (ZeMKI), University of Bremen, the Master's programme "Digital Media and Society", unique in Germany, starts with strong interdisciplinarity and an innovative study programme. The new Master in "Digital Media and Society" will begin in the winter semester 2018/19 and the application deadline is the end of July. The course, which is offered exclusively in English, is aimed at students of communication and media studies interested in research who wish to qualify for a profoundly mediatized and globalized professional world with an international and interdisciplinary orientation. One focus is the empirical-analytical examination of a digital society shaped by media. This is based on an integrative study programme concept that links communication and media studies with media informatics, media education, religious studies and film studies. Further issues and topics of the digital society are included via a practice and integration area. The focus on current and future social developments and challenges associated with digitalization is innovative and unique in Germany. Digitalization is visibly changing our daily lives. The rapidly growing importance of digital data is also changing the role of media and communication media in society and what we understand by media and communication sciences. Digitalization and datafication demand that young professionals critically rethink the role that media and communication devices play in people's everyday lives, but also for processes in politics, business and culture. The intensive analysis of these developments in various areas of society is a central theme of the new "MA Digital Media and Society". The programme is at the forefront of these developments and qualifies students for key positions in the digital society, both in (media) practice and in science. The in-depth analysis of these developments in various areas of society is a central theme.
