Never before have so many new and powerful technologies arisen as aggressively as in the dawn of the 21st century. The result is a profound shift in the nature of our interaction in every facet of life: at home, at school, in the neighborhood and around the world.
Major challenges in information communication technologies will further shape how we interact as a society. Our work in this area includes major initiatives in technology's impact on:
- Democracy, governance and public policy
- Workplace and business practices
- Production of, and access to, news and information
- Community and diverse populations
Annenberg explores this new communication frontier, from the creation of virtual touch technologies to the impact of online news. Our scholars, both students and faculty, are defining the field for the next century.
