We build on LSE's commitment to connecting theory with empirical research and practical or policy applications. Located at the heart of one of the world's media capitals, we sustain excellent links with media and communications industries and policy makers. Students are encouraged to read widely, to engage critically with challenging ideas and to undertake independent empirical research.
Academic staff conduct research at the interface between social and technological change, addressing key issues in the emerging global digital world and seeking a critical understanding of its social, economic and political dynamics in order to inform academic, policy and public debates. They sustain active research links with departments across the LSE and with the best researchers internationally.
