various dimensions, including race, ethnicity, gender, LGBTQ+

well-being, health disparities, digital inequity, and environmental aspects.
The Department values the contribution of different disciplines,
different ways of knowing, and different ways of doing, in research and
creative activities that advance knowledge and transform lives in ways
that lead to a better quality of life for individuals and communities.
The MI faculty come from a range of disciplines, including
communication, information science, media, human-computer interaction,
information systems, psychology, sociology, economics, science and
technology studies, and design to complement and create a unique
intellectual energy. Our faculty advance theory and research, build
technology interventions to address public health challenges,
human-centered technology, design traditional and interactive games and
media experiences, work with policy makers, and pursue new forms of
scholarship. Our department is a member of the iSchools consortium and
has a top ranked program in communication and game design and development.
The Department is housed in the world-renowned College of Communication
Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University (MSU). Established in
1955, as the first of its kind in the country, “ComArtSci” is now one of
the largest and most respected colleges of Communication in the world.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are integral to our practice as
communicators, storytellers, and innovators. MSU is an
affirmative-action, equal-opportunity employer and is committed to
achieving excellence through diversity, equity, and inclusion. We
actively encourage applications and/or nominations of women, persons of
color, veterans, and persons with disabilities.
Founded in 1855, MSU is one of the nation’s largest and greenest
campuses and is in East Lansing, a college town just three miles from
Michigan’s capital, Lansing. Michigan, the Great Lakes State, offers
countless things to do, see and experience — from art galleries,
concerts and restaurants to gardens, parks, and trails. You needn’t
venture far to discover sandy beaches or metropolitan life.
