“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
Dr. Sullivan's research explores the ways we can encourage and enable underrepresented voices in games. Her work has been shown internationally and at the SAAM Arcade event at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
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
"Katie Lynn Sears studied Economics at Georgia Tech and made a habit of registering for LMC classes when she could. It was in an LMC class that Jillann Hertel encouraged her to pursue graphic design."
