#2: Why take IEOR 190G?

Communication technology has changed drastically throughout the decade. This originally pulled me toward Media Studies (formerly known as Mass Communication Studies) as more complex communication became possible and popular. I have studied campaign strategy, journalism, and social media. These are all fields have been dramatically effected or have been developed entirely by the innovations in communication technology. I really enjoy studying how these innovations have  changed the way we live our lives.

However, in this course I hope to gain a new perspective on communication technology. I want to look beyond media content and focus on how this technology evolved form a more technical standpoint.
