M{2e} -- or Media, Economics and Entrepreneurship -- is USC Annenberg's unique initiative applying an economic perspective throughout communication and journalism.
Join these discussions with scholars and professionals addressing the intersection of communication, journalism, economics and entrepreneurship.
The Annenberg Innovation Lab engages in three kinds of activities: * Design challenges that provide technical support, mentorship and prizes to USC students developing prototypes, applications and business ideas. * Research on the digital media revolution and its impact on governments, businesses, creators and consumers. * Ongoing dialogues that bring together students, executives, artists, entrepreneurs, scholars and policy makers.
The USC Annenberg Institute of Sports, Media and Society seeks to advance and enrich the study and practice of sports communication at the intersection of sports and culture in media. The Institute is being developed to achieve these goals through teaching, research, special programs and events, professional programs, and community outreach.
The Nike-sponsored Sports and Social Change Speaker Series is one of the key public programs presented by the Institute which promotes academic and research programs in sports and sports media, including the new Minor in Sports Media Studies offered at USC Annenberg.
The Norman Lear Center is a multidisciplinary research and public policy center exploring implications of the convergence of entertainment, commerce, and society. On the University of Southern California campus, the Lear Center builds bridges between eleven schools whose faculty study aspects of entertainment, media, and culture. Beyond campus, it bridges the gap between the entertainment industry and academia, and between them and the public. Through scholarship and research; through its programs of visiting fellows, conferences, public events, and publications; and in its attempts to illuminate and repair the world, the Lear Center works to be at the forefront of discussion and practice in the field.
Guided by Ambassador Walter Annenberg's vision that communication affects all aspects of the society and should be used in the public interest, the Center seeks to explore and expand the frontiers of leadership through a combination of research, writing, events, projects and courses. The Center will examine the ways in which theory, technology, regulation and practice can be used (or abused), and the ways in which leaders have performed and can perform at optimum levels inspiring, empowering, managing and creating in corporations, non-governmental organizations and the government. Based on both traditional values and cutting-edge research, the Center will seek to teach a new generation of leaders and to inspire, critique and improve the performance of those who are already having a major impact on society.
