Department of Culture and Communication

In this sense, the courses at the graduate level have two primary objectives: the first is to raise students’ awareness of communication issues that arise in professional contexts; the second is to open students to the world outside of their usual frames of reference through the exploration of philosophy, psychoanalysis, literature, etc.

These two educational objectives rely on various materials, tools and methods that promote the assimilation of both content (e.g. theories) and practice (e.g. behavior).

Therefore, the courses, most notably the seminars, are primarily comprised of applied studies, such as simulations, role-plays, case studies, project-based learning, coaching workshops, etc.
