Student Profiles
“I was looking for a program that cross-pollinates Human-Computer Interaction with Culture Studies. I had a strong theoretical background in semantics and philosophy of language & culture – CCT is making me proficient in qualitative methods tools. I am currently collaborating with a fellow student to build an app.” ~ Rohan Somji, current CCT student
Alumni Profiles
“I chose Communication, Culture & Technology because I wanted to make sense of all my interests. I was a tinkerer who dabbled with code, had an affinity for brand strategy and loved to write. CCT helped me turn my many interests into a focus and eventually a career.” ~ Deron Hogans, CCT 2012
Faculty Profiles
“Those who hire Communication, Culture & Technology grads know: in addition to technical skills, they have something even more valuable at the leadership level – a conceptual, ‘big picture’ understanding of the complex web of cultural, political, and economic relations in which our technologies are embedded.” ~ Martin Irvine, Founding Director and Core Faculty
“At CCT we try to ask questions in new ways in order to seek creative and achievable outcomes that conventional disciplinary modes of knowledge production may not be able to anticipate. Further, we do this in community, knowing that no single person contains as much insight and wisdom as an engaged, diverse, curious and collegial group of faculty and students.” ~ Matthew Tinkcom, CCT Director
