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

“The Communication, Culture & Technology program now approaches its 25th year as one of the most innovative interdisciplinary graduate programs in the world, a program whose members examine the connections among human life, technologies of communication, and cultural practices both historical and contemporary.” ~ Matthew Tinkcom, CCT Director
