The essential principle of the objectives of the Research Laboratory Media, Social Uses and Communication (MUSC) is the universal importance of the relationship between the media (old and new) and every society in the world. Its business objectives will strengthen (human and material resources) the company with the most promising studies in terms of research and development.
Within each research team constituting the Lab, scientific discussions will enable researchers to define the most original and useful research topics for media development in Algeria. The design of the research axes will aim at producing new knowledge about the realities (particularly sociological, technological linguistic and public policies) that mark the uses and practices of the media in the country in particular. The projected studies will shed light on the induced social changes, especially in the dynamics of technological development and the globalization of communication.
In this short presentation synthesis, let us also underline the willingness of MUSC lab team leaders to imagine, design and implement the most practical and stimulating solutions to support the research work of the students of the School: Master's dissertations and PHD theses.
