Pursuing a PhD enables you to deeply investigate a specific area of media and communication that captivates your interest while contributing significantly to your field. This advanced degree is essential for those aiming for academic careers. Full-time researchers typically finish their doctoral studies within three years. The Global Communication research team shares a critical perspective on how communication dynamics establish power structures spanning local, regional, and international contexts. Group members employ diverse methodologies with regional expertise covering Central/Eastern Europe, Africa, East/Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
Concentrating on how power relations emerge through communication channels - especially in the fast-changing digital landscape - the Global Communication group has created meaningful impact regarding development communication, participatory approaches, media economics, global news networks, international disputes, climate issues, and migration patterns.
