[Air-L] PhD / Research programs - linguistics and social media

[Muhammad Abdul-Mageed]

Dear Kushchu,

Like Ilana, I also recommend our very own Indiana University, Bloomington.

Prof. Susan Herring, the former editor of JCMC and the current editor of Language at Internet, is based in IU's School of Library and Information Science (soon to become the Department of Information and Library Science as we merge with the School of Informatics and Computing) and also the Department of Linguistics. We also have a host of scholars working within the area of social informatics, etc. IU also has the Rob Kling Center for Social Informatics.

We have courses on Computer-Mediated Communication, Computer-Mediated Discourse Analysis, Gender and Computerization, Social Media Mining, and Content Analysis for the World Wide Web. You could checkProf. Herring's as well as my own Webpages (especially the research and teaching sections of each) for more about these courses. I also recommend checking other courses we have. In linguistics, we also have faculty interested in overlapping areas. 

Please feel free to email me off the list at "mabdulma at indiana.edu" should you need further related information.

Good luck with your search!

Cheers,

Muhammad

Dear Kushchu,
Indiana University would also be a good place to study this -- either in 
the linguistics department or in the Dept. of Communication and Culture.
