“The role that LMC plays in the humanistic side of what our students take away from their Tech experience is more important than ever. ”
Steven W. McLaughlin, Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs at Georgia Tech
Our Approach
Literature, Media, and Communication (LMC) defines new models of intellectual inquiry and practice that bring diverse humanistic perspectives to bear on technological invention and innovation. LMC researches and teaches how humanities shape and are shaped by science and technology. Faculty and students assess and inform technological and scientific change by creating, analyzing, and critiquing a broad range of media forms and cultural practices.
Faculty Highlight
"Learn to think in terms of data settings—defined by the contexts in which data are made and used—not simply data sets”
Student Highlight
"The LMC degree at Tech is extraordinary, because it allows students the freedom to shape their degrees based on their passions!"
Alumni Highlight
I think everyone should be reading more science fiction because it gives us language and ideas that help us grapple with the effects of rapid scientific and technological change on our lives, relationships, and culture.
