The New Media and Culture Certificate is a transdisciplinary program open to graduate students working at the intersection of new media and culture in any masters or Ph.D. program at the University of Oregon.

The NMCC connects you to students working at the intersection of new media and culture and a wide range of topics from different disciplinary backgrounds, as well as affiliated faculty committed to providing support for new media scholars at UO, regardless of their home department.

Though you’re welcome to apply at any point in their studies, there are limits to the number of credits taken before acceptance into the Certificate program that can count toward NMCC requirements. As such, you should apply as early in your graduate program as possible, and ideally as soon as you decide you want to pursue NMCC. Applications for the program are due by the middle of Week 5 every term. For Winter 2022, that deadline is fast approaching: Tuesday, February 1st.

Join us for a Virtual Q&A session on Friday, January 28th, 3-5 PM. Drop by any time with your questions + queries about the application process or the program more broadly.
