Subject: New MA Program on Multimodal Communication - Amsterdam, Netherlands

 
New MA program on Multimodal Communication starting in September 2015 at the
Vrije Universiteit/VU in Amsterdam, Netherlands. 

The one-year program, taught entirely in English, welcomes applications from
students with a BA in linguistics, English, or language and communication.
Core courses in the program concern the study of text and image in business
communication, talk as a combination of speech and gesture, metaphor as a tool
of persuasion in different modes of communication, and genres as a basic-level
category of discourse events. 
Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded an MA in
Communication and Information Studies.
