research and education across a wide range of disciplines.

The Department of information science and media studies was established 
in 2004 by merging the former Department of information science and 
Department of media studies. The staff counts about 70 people, including 
30 permanent faculty members and approximately 20 PhD and postdoc 
positions. The department offers separate bachelor- and master-programs 
in both information science and media. There are also bachelor programs 
in Film and TV-production, Journalism and New Media. Furthermore, the

This media-cluster opens in 2017 and will facilitate research and

there will be a new program in interaction design for digital media.

The research profile of the department is characterized by a strong

interdisciplinary nature. Within information science there are 
research-groups on interaction research, semantic and social information 
systems and logic, information and interaction."
