Mitropoulou Eleni

Full Professor, University of Haute Alsace 

Professor at the Department of Information and Communication and the Laboratory CRESAT (Research Center on Economics, Societies, Arts and Techniques) at the University of Haute Alsace, my research and teaching areas are the discourses, processes and the practices of mediated communication. From mass media to digital screen devices, my approach is a semiotic critique of communication based on interactions between information, culture and even education. Institutional, artistic, scientific, didactic, tourist, professional, non-professional, advertising or even journalistic spheres constitute the fields of observation.

Deputy Director of Cresat and elected member of the Council of the Faculty of Economic, Social and Legal Sciences since 2018 (University of Mulhouse), I directed the Doctoral School "Cognition, behaviors, languages" for the site of the University of Limoges from 2014 to 2017.
