INTRODUCING CICANT
CICANT – The Centre for Research in Applied Communication, Culture, and New Technologies results from the combined efforts of faculty of the School of Communication, Architecture, Arts and Information Technologies (ECATI) of Lusófona University towards the goal of creating a unit which allows for the integration and harnessing of the research activities conducted within it.
|
|
Our Research
This unit promotes theoretical and applied research on all its subject areas, particularly focusing on knowledge transfer and exchange with industry and similar centres in Portugal and in Europe. CICANT aims to bring together theoretical and applied research on technology, society and contemporary subjectivity. Futher, one of primary goals is to create a common space that can nourish interdisciplinary research between the arts, social sciences and information technologies.
