“What LMC at Georgia Tech teaches and creates is absolutely essential if you care about our future. ”
Chaouki T. Abdallah, Executive Vice President for Research
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
From alien warrior queens to fighting housewives and heroic astronauts – In her latest book, The Future is Female!, Dr. Yaszek highlights stories written between the 1920s and the feminist movements of the 1970s.
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
"It was difficult for me to find my bearings in Digital Media, but going through that process strengthened my ability to find my own direction in a professional environment that isn’t prescriptive."
