The Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication (ESHCC) hosts the Departments of History, Arts and Culture Studies, and Media & Communication. Our mission is to operate as a centre of excellence for research into the fascinating relationships between media, communication, society, economics, culture, and history. Our approach is interdisciplinary, empirical, theory-driven and situated at the crossroads of the social sciences and humanities. We seek to attract and nurture a diverse, international faculty and student body. With our research, we aim to contribute to key scientific debates and address major societal challenges at the local, national and international level.
