Hi all,

Hoping you could help spreading information about this new option for any
prospective students:

Master Degree Programme in Information Studies and Interactive media, 
Specialization in Internet and Game Studies (120 ECTS)
University of Tampere, Finland

Degree Programme in Information Studies and Interactive Media aims to
provide an overview of contemporary information and media environments, with
a focus on the fundamental character and application opportunities of
information and interactive media systems, and the consequences from their
adoption at individual and societal level. The Specialization in Internet
and Game Studies is targeted at the questions of analysis, design and
application of online services and digital games from user- and culturally
focused perspectives.

We have plans to start a new Master's Degree Programme in Internet and Game
Studies in September 2013. However, as many programme course units are
offered in English already from September 2012, it is possible to admit some
international students in 2012. The total student intake in 2012 is 12.

If you are interested in this this degree, please consult the web page to
see more details on the structure of studies, eligibility criteria,
financing of studies and other issues:

You can forward this announcement to those with potential interest.

Best regards,

  - Frans
