Department of New Media and Communication - Message from the Head of the Department

The word digital is used along with the word revolution by many information scientists  As a matter of fact, the idea that the digital revolution is the biggest one after the industrial revolution or the Gutenberg revolution, which is described as a leap that changed all mentality structures in human history has gained importance. The pioneers of social media have not only transformed the computer into an improvement machine that will represent the old media in a new way, but also have created new media forms that will provide the opportunity to learn and produce for communication and expression by observing the possibilities provided by the digital computer. At the point reached today, the new media world, which exists through digital communication technologies, namely computer, internet and mobile technologies, has become an indispensable part of today's modern life.

New media has not only transformed traditional professions through digital communication technologies, but also enabled new business models to come to life. As the New Media and Communications Department, we aim to raise young people who are experts in their fields,

who follow the trends in the world, develop creative ideas and have the ability to put them into practice.
