We are delighted to announce the official launch of the InterMEDIUS University Research School (Inter-mediations in the age of digital information and its uses in society).

The InterMEDIUS University Research School is structured around four major areas identifying several levels of mediation processes directly linked to digital technology the creation and the mediation cultural control and the decision and territorial issues. It tackles a wide range of issues involving the many interactions between digital technology, heritage, culture and society.

Associated with eight laboratories and thirteen masters specialities, EUR InterMEDIUS offers masters and doctoral students a wide range of courses, an interdisciplinary, research-based training programme. This scheme aims to prepare students for the careers of tomorrow, combining solid skills in a given discipline with an appetite for research, curiosity and an ability to be open to interdisciplinarity.

This year, EUR is piloting a new training scheme: Open Interdisciplinary Teaching Units.

The UEOI offers students (M1) the opportunity to take one course per semester in another discipline in addition to their Master's degree. Students can choose from a list of 28 modules selected from eight disciplines, thus acquiring solid skills in a given discipline, an appetite for research, curiosity and an openness to interdisciplinarity.

In the longer term, EUR will propose a new university degree with an international outlookat the crossroads of the digital sciences and the humanities and social sciences. Teaching will take the form of workshops, seminars and research projects, supplemented by laboratory placements.
