Science Po Media Lab
The médialab at Sciences Po was founded in 2009 as a center of research and practice that connects the social sciences with new digital tools with the goal of bringing together a set of knowledge and capacities necessary for the development of a digital humanities. With its technical and methodological expertise, the médialab has become an essential partner in digitally-focused research projects in the human and social sciences. As the day-to-day activity of people and institutions becomes more and more oriented toward the web, the fact that the traces of these activities are easily recoverable using simple digital techniques offers a powerful field of observation for researchers in the social sciences.
