| Contact this school | | Description | | What is semiotics?
Semiotics is the general study of sign processes, or semiosis. Semiosis makes the world meaningful.
Today’s world, where processes have a disbalance of global and local dimension, challenges us to understand the need of individuals and societies for defining their identity. Semiotics is centrally relevant to achieve this understanding.
The 2-year Master’s programme in Semiotics provides interdisciplinary background and gives a theoretical base for application of semiotic ideas to a wide variety of disciplines and scientific study.
The programme binds together the theory of semiotics and three core modules - cultural semiotics, biosemiotics and sociosemiotics. The program also combines the major semiotic traditions of Ferdinand de Saussure and Charles S. Peirce with the leading contemporary and innovative thought.
The University of Tartu is the oldest and largest multidisciplinary public university of Estonia and one of the best-known in Northern and Eastern Europe. Founded in 1632, it has 10 faculties and 5 regional colleges. Almost 17 000 students choose the University of Tartu to be their alma mater, including 630 international students. | | Alternate language description | | Not Available | | Areas of study | | | Language of instruction | Type of School | | English | Public University | | Type of studies | Accreditation | | University Degree Program, Graduate, Professional Programs | Ministry of Education and Research of Estonia | | Location on world map | |
