  • Call for Researchers on Women in Communication
    The Lillian Lodge Kopenhaver Center for the Advancement of Women in Communication was established to empower and advance women scholars and professionals in the fields of communication. The center is seeking to develop collaborations and initiate research projects with scholars whose research interests focus on women in mass communication including, the portrayal of women in mass media, women in the media industries, the role of women in media and mass communication, women adoption of new media technologies, and more. If your scholarly work addresses one of these topics or any topic that focuses on women in mass communication, we would like to know about you. Please contact Dr. Sigal Segev, Chair of the Research Forum at segevs@fiu.edu to become involved with the center and receive the latest information on women in communication research.
