I C I COLLOQUIUM
The ICI Colloquium is a single event conference organized to explicate a designated topic of research and teaching interest related to Communicology as a human science.
The Colloquium is usually a one or two day roundtable meeting hosted by an ICI Fellow(s) at a university or research center. Colloquia are organized on an occasional basis with no fixed schedule per year. Because attendance is typically limited to ten (10) or fewer presentations, participation is strictly by invitation only from the colloquium organizer.
Colloquia are intended to stimulate a research initiative which will, in time, result in the presentation of a topical panel of papers at an academic conference, in a special issue of a journal, or as an edited book collection of essays. The sequence of Colloquia is designated by number, year, theme, department, institution, and country, e.g., “First ICI Colloquium, 2014, The Cultural Matrix of Communicology, Department of Communication Studies, Eastern Washington University (USA)”.
Suggestions for colloquia are proposed to, and approved by, the ICI Director on behalf of the Collegium of Fellows.
New USA University Department of COMMUNICOLOGY
Fall Semester 2011, the
Department of Communicology at the UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII
(Manoa campus in Honolulu, USA) became the first degree granting (BA, MA) university in the USA to reflect the contemporary Communicology name designation of the discipline. manoa.hawaii.edu/communicology Caveat: The graduate research approach in the department is strictly limited to statistical methodology (quantitative) and does not embrace the traditional logic based methods (qualitative) of phenomenology and semiotics. Undergraduate approach is the traditional General Speech blend of arts and sciences, theoretical and applied skills.
