The Doctoral Degree in Communication, Education and Humanities is an interdisciplinary and international doctoral degree that promotes quality research.
This doctoral degree pursues cross-disciplinary research, taking advantage of the epistemological and methodological synergy of these fields. Communication and education go hand in hand in all cognitive processes: communicating somehow involves educating and instructing audiences, and vice versa. All forms of education are based on a communicative process. At the same time, communication and humanities converge in an anthropological vision of the information society and establish curricular synergies (Double Degrees in Humanities and Communication) that call for joint research topics. Finally, education and humanities have rediscovered their common scientific tradition and have returned to their origins, when they were consolidated as scientific areas within the same faculty.
New doctors should be able to access post-doctoral research positions by obtaining international grants and funding in order to enter into an academic career.
