Welcome to the website of ‘ICT in a different culture’ 2012
‘ICT in a different culture’ is a course at the Radboud University Nijmegen and belongs to the Master Information Science and Master Computer Science.
The course is an international broadening course to explore levels, practice and opportunities and threats for Information and Communication Technology in a non-western context.
Each year, some specific context is chosen, referred to as the country of interest. This context is further refined by specific research projects.
This year the course involves a visit to Brasil, which will take place in February. More information on this visit, and the course in general, can be found on the Study Trip page.
In previous years we visited Uganda, India, South-Africa and China. The philosophy behind the course is that the study trip is such that graduate students from computer and information science get the opportunity to get an international experience that is related to their theoretical work till then.
