PhD in Emerging Media Studies
New media poses challenges for society and complexities for researchers. Are you ready to tackle both?
Academic Bulletin

The Boston University PhD program in Emerging Media Studies is the nation’s first doctorate program in emerging media and its critical, daily role in modern life.
COM’s unique program prepares its doctoral students to become sophisticated researchers and critical thinkers who are ready to advance the fields of communication, sociological, and media leadership. Designed for students with a master’s degree, this program helps candidates gain a comprehensive understanding of the role of emerging media in society and organizations and hone their research skills through independent, innovative, and mentored research.
Recent and upcoming dissertation topics address a wide array of topics, such as social perceptions of robots, the effects of television binge-watching, and media framing of direct-to-consumer genetic testing.
Meet COM’s First Doctoral Recipient, Sarah Krongard
It seems there’s always something to celebrate at COM, and the 2019 fall semester marked one particularly noteworthy achievement — PhD…
Learning and Teaching
EMS graduate students are taught and mentored by some of the leading researchers and thinkers in the field. The faculty make full use of the most advanced theories and methods to examine communication phenomena — from social media, streaming content, and AR/VR to Big Data and AI. Under their guidance, students learn how to conduct and analyze social science research concerning all types of emerging media.
As a doctoral student, you’ll serve as a teaching fellow while enrolled in the program. On average, you should expect to serve as a teaching fellow a minimum of two times during the program.
Resources for Research
COM graduate students get ready for careers by rolling up their sleeves for hands-on research.
All Emerging Media Studies students contribute to COM’s annual #ScreentimeBU conference, an opportunity to present their research in the field of digital communication and society as well as exchange their views with peers and field leaders concerning important contemporary issues. By showcasing the fruits of your research, you’ll share their ideas with the general public and industry leaders. Additionally, the conference provides an opportunity for you to develop your public communication capabilities and receive input from industry experts in a professional setting.
CENTER FOR MOBILE Communication Studies
Laptops, smart phones, and tablets have been transformed from novelties to necessities. But we’re only beginning to understand how they have transformed us.
EMS students also take advantage of research opportunities at COM’s Communication Research Center , COM’s primary research hub, and the state of-the-art technology offered at the Zimmerman Family Social Activation Center, that puts in-depth social media analytics at your fingertips.
Funding Support
Because the doctoral program is immersive and requires full-time participation for a number of years, all PhD students in Emerging Media Studies are funded for the duration of their study, up to a maximum of five years. Funding includes a full tuition scholarship, health insurance credit, and stipend in return for teaching and research obligations. Students with their own funding for the program (through the Fulbright Commission, government funding or other source) will still be required to serve as a teaching fellow for at least one semester. Compensation will be provided.
Benefit from Boston
One of BU’s greatest resources is its location. Consistently ranked among the most livable cities in the world, Boston is “America’s college town,” a city rich in history while remaining on the forefront of culture and innovation. Boston is a Top 10 U.S. media market, and home to some of the world’s best creative agencies, media companies and leading employers — offering boundless opportunities for internships and careers.
More than 80%
of our graduate students receive scholarships.
Purpose Driven
COM stands out from our peers. Our faculty offers a mix of researchers and practitioners who endorse a cross-discipline, hands-on approach to learning. Our location lies at the heart of an electric, media-savvy city.
But it may be COM’s shared values that matter most. We believe that communication requires diversity, critical thinking, and creative expression. We believe that communication must be grounded in truth, authenticity, effectiveness, and purpose. We believe that communication builds understanding among people and across society.

- Beyond the Program…Why UConn?
The general aim of the Ph.D. program in Communication is to provide students with a rigorous course of study that will prepare them for careers in either the academic or commercial spheres. The curriculum is not directed toward either of these domains, but rather attempts to give students a breadth of scholarly training that will allow them to pursue either of these career paths.
Academic Sphere. There is a very strong academic research component to communication. Persons with interests in communication are currently found on Communication faculties and in schools of Journalism and Mass Communication. Communication is an established academic area, as reflected in published research by faculty members in departments of Communication.
Commercial Sphere. Many organizations realize the value of research in mass communication effects, advertising, audience analysis, and other areas of communication. They have created a significant number of positions in communication. At the middle and upper management level, these are often filled by people with Ph.D. degrees. Training for persons filling these positions is often obtained in programs which do not equally emphasize communication theory and methods. The Ph.D. program in Communication is designed to provide the student with strong knowledge of communication theory, coupled with very strong research skills. A graduate of this program can step into a commercial research position without facing a period of hit-or-miss "on-the-job" training.
Ph.D. Program Elements
Length of Program
The time required for completion for the Ph.D. program will differ, depending on the degree status of entering students, and the courses already completed by the student at the graduate or undergraduate level. It is expected that students entering with a master’s degree will require approximately four years to complete the requisite course work, pass qualifying exams, and then write and defend the dissertation. (Note that students who earn an M.A. degree from our own program will require approximately three years, having already taken some of the required coursework.) The final program of course work and research for a student is created in consultation with his/her academic advisory committee. This program takes into account the student’s prior coursework and career objectives.
Research Requirement
Students participate in at least two research projects mentored by faculty before beginning their dissertation. These projects provide students with the necessary research experience before beginning the independent research required by the dissertation. They also put students in a better position to enter the Ph.D. job market.
Elective Courses (9 credits)
The student, in consultation with the academic advisory committee, will take an additional 9 credits in an area chosen to provide breadth or specialized skills. Typical areas might be social/behavioral research, computer science, or specialized business or communication areas.
Qualifying Exams
After coursework is completed, students take a general exam. When they pass, they are considered “Ph.D. Candidates” or "A.B.D." (all but dissertation).
Dissertation
An original research project designed by the student, approved by the advising committee.

Thesis and Research Topics in Digital Communication
Digital Communication simply means devices communicating with each other in through digital signals. The signals are digitized and then the information is transferred through these digitized signals from source to destination.
But why Digital Communication or Digitization is needed?
Traditionally, analog signals were used for long distance communication. This mode of communication faces many problems and risks in the form of signal loss, distortion, interference, security breaches etc. To tackle these problems, digital mode of communication is developed which has the minimized the earlier problems to a certain level.
There are many topics in digital communication for project, thesis, and research. In this blog, we have listed some of the latest topics in digital communication.
Following is the list of latest research and thesis topics in Digital Communication:
GSM Communication
IoT(Internet of Things)
Analog-to-Digital Conversion
Cognitive Radio
Audio processing, optical communication.
GSM or Global System for Mobile Communication is an important standard for digital networks of 2nd generation mobile devices and is developed by the European Telecommunications Standard Institute(ETSI). It is one of the most widely used digital wireless technology. The other ones are TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) and CDMS(Code Division Multiple Access).
The GSM network consists of the following sections:
Base Station Subsystem
Network and Switching Subsystem
GPRS core network
Operations Support System
The base station contains the mobile devices along with the SIM that is inserted into the device. There are two components of base station – the transceiver and the controller. The transceiver manages the protocols of the radio-link. The controller is the connection between the station and the switching centre. GSM uses TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) and FDMA(Frequency Division Multiple Access) for dividing the bandwidth. It is a very good topic for M.Tech thesis in Digital Communication.
Subscriber Identity Module(SIM) is the most important feature of GSM. As everyone knows, a SIM is a card inserted into a cell phone containing information about the subscriber and the contacts added to that card.
Features of GSM
Following are the important features of GSM:
Spectrum efficiency is improved
International roaming
Fixed Dialing Number(FDN)
SMS(Short Messaging Service)
Real-Time Clock
New services are supported
GSM with other technologies
GSM can be used with other technologies for more enhanced wireless communication. HSCSD(High Speed Circuit Switched Data), GPRS(General Packet Radio System), EDGE(Enhanced Data GSM Environment), UMTS(Universal Mobile Telecommunication Systems) are the examples of this.
Advantages of GSM
The coverage area is more
Variety of phones can operate on GSM
High speed download and upload
Disadvantages of GSM
Same bandwidth is used by multiple users
Electronic interference can occur due to same bandwidth
Limited data-rate
In digital communication, modulation is the process of changing the properties of a signal by adding additional information to that signal. The original signal is the carrier signal having steady wavelength of constant amplitude and frequency. Demodulation is the process of extracting information from the original signal.
The process of modulation is performed by a modulator while demodulation is performed by a demodulator. A modem is a combination of both i.e. it can perform both modulation and demodulation.
Analog Modulation is for analog signals while digital modulation is for digital signals.
Another form modulation is the pulse modulation. In pulse modulation, a sequence of pulses carry the information rather than a modulated signal. Students doing masters can opt this topic for their thesis and research work.
Common methods of modulation
The most common methods of modulation are:
Amplitude Modulation
Frequency Modulation
Phase Modulation
Polarization Modulation
Pulse-code Modulation
Internet of Things(IoT)
Internet of Things is a new technology in digital communication for connecting devices to the Internet. It is also known as embedded system in which devices are connected with each other which respond to the changes happening in the surrounding environment. The ‘thing’ in the ‘internet of things’ can be any physical thing from person to devices. The devices in the network has been a unique IP address to collect and transfer data over the network.
Internet of Things allows the embedded devices to connect to the Internet which can be controlled from anywhere. Internet of Things(IoT) is currently the trending thesis topic in digital communication and also in computer science.
The applications of Internet of Things has been broadened from smart homes to smart cities.
Smart Homes
Smart Home is an important application of the Internet of Things(IoT). In this application, any electricity-enabled device can be connected to the network and made to work on your command. Important radio networks used in home automation are ZigBee and Z-waves. These are mesh networks in which message can be received in more than one way. ZigBee is a low-cost and low-power technology used in wireless communication. Z-Wave is a protocol for home automation used for communication between devices using radio frequency for signalling and controlling. There is a Network ID assigned to each Z-Wave Network and each device in the network has a Node ID. To determine the shortest route for message transmission Source Routing Algorithm is used by Z-Wave.
Whenever a device is connected to the network, the Id that is assigned to the device is recognized by the network controller to determine its location and add to the network. Whenever a command is sent by the device, the algorithm depicts how the message should be sent. High-Priority devices are given preference over low-priority devices. The important products that make up the smart home include cameras, thermostat, LED Lights, Motion Sensors, and various other such devices. A Camera is used to track the interior of the house.
IoT in Medical and Health-care
IoT also finds a number of applications in medical and healthcare systems. One of the major application is remote patient monitoring. A patient’s blood pressure, heart beat at a distant location can be tracked through sensors attached to his body. This will help the doctors to estimate his health conditions and also give proper subscriptions. Emergency Notification System is another application of IoT in health-care. It is a method of one-way communication in which people in a group are notified whenever any emergency situation arises.
IoT Security
IoT Security is an area concerned with protecting the IoT devices and network. In IoT network, a number of devices and entities are connected with each other. They always face the risk of security and privacy. The devices passwords are often kept default which is easier for attackers to hack. To look into this matter, Internet of Things Security Foundation(IoTSF) was launched. It promotes best practices and standards for IoT Security.
Analog-Digital Conversion
Analog-to-digital conversion is an important process in which analog signal is converted to digital signal while the content of the signal is not altered. For this purpose, an analog-to-digital converter(ADC) is used. The analog signals are difficult to process and that is why they are converted to digital. The digital signals can be processed, manipulated, transmitted and stored.
The ADC Converter takes analog signal as the input generating digital signal as the output. There are two processes done by the ADC – Sampling and Quantization. The input signal i.e. the analog signal has an infinite resolution. Sampling process determines the maximum bandwidth of the analogue signal that is sampled. 2N digital values are produced by the ADC where N is the number of binary output bits.
Applications of Analog-to-Digital Conversion
Following are the main application areas of ADC:
Music Recording
Digital Signal Processing
Scientific Equipments
Rotary Encoder
Types of Analog-to-Digital Converter
Although there are various types of ADC, following are the main ones:
Pipelined ADC
Successive Approximation-Register
Sigma-Delta
In flash ADC, a resistor divides the voltage into 2^n parts which are equal. For each part there is a comparator that compares the input with the supplied voltage. In pipelined ADC, the input is converted in a number of steps which are proportional to the number of data bits. The successive approximation ADC, one bit is evaluated at a time starting from most significant bit to the least significant bit. Sigma-Delta converter is also known as oversampling converter as the signal is sampled at much higher frequency.
Cognitive Radio is an important type in digital communication. In this type of communication, a transceiver is used which can detect that which channel is free and which is occupied. The vacant channels are then occupied for communication. Radio-frequency spectrum is used for sensing the channel. The interference is also minimized while using radio-frequency for sensing. The parameters that the cognitive radio check include channel frequency, free channels, type of data, and modulation. Cognitive Radio is a relatively new technology and an unexplored area for research and thesis.
A lot of development is going on to improve and enhance the features of cognitive radio. For this, a high level of processing is required. There are types of Cognitive Radios: Heterogeneous CR and Spectrum sharing CR.
In heterogeneous system, network centric approach is followed in which several radio access networks (RAN) are operated using same or different radio access technologies(RAT).
Advantages of Cognitive Radio
Cognitive Radio provides a number of advantages as compared to the traditional networks. Following are some of the advantages:
Better Spectrum Sensing – With cognitive radio network, the spectrum sensing capacity of the channel is improved to a significant level.
Better Coverage – The performance will also be better with improved coverage of the network. The data can be sent from one node to another.
Radio jamming can be avoided – By sensing channel availability, the unnecessary jamming of radio frequencies can be avoided.
Better Quality of Service – Through spectrum sensing, high bandwidth channels can be selected thereby improving the Quality of Service(QoS).
Challenges of Cognitive Radio
Following are some of the challenges of Cognitive Radio:
Decision-making – The first and the foremost challenge of cognitive radio network is how the decision for channel availability should be made. Also there are challenges in selection of appropriate decision making algorithms.
Learning Process – There is challenge in selection of learning process that whether it should be supervised or unsupervised. Any wrong choice can disintegrate the whole system.
Cross Layer – The design of the whole network is complex such that there should be coordination between the different layers of the network. Challenges also exists in the form of interoperability, coexistence, cooperation and collaboration.
Security – Security of the system is always the main challenge. For security of the system, certain rules and standards should be imposed on the network. The number of potential interactions are also high due to dynamic nature of the network which can lead to violations.
Sensing – There are also challenges regarding spectrum sensing. The accuracy of spectrum occupancy decision also matters a lot.
Geo-location – The main challenge in this area is how to implement data. The location should be precise in order to properly implement the data.
Audio Processing means altering the characteristics of audio in one way or the other. Audio Processing can be done to enhance audio quality, detect faults and to generate new sounds. Following are the types of audio processing done:
Compression – Reducing the range of the audio signals
Expansion – Expanding the range of the audio signals
Equalization – In this, the level of the signals are increased or decreased according to the requirements.
Limiting – In this, the level of the signal is constrained to specific limit
Phasing – Interesting sound effects are created through phasing
Chorus – Multiple effect is given to a sound from a single source
Application areas of Audio Processing
The main application areas of audio processing include storage, compression, transmission, filtering, echo, noise cancellation etc. The other main applications of Audio Processing include:
Speech Generation
Speech Recognition
Optical Communication is a type of communication in which light signal is used for transmission of data from sender to receiver instead of electric signal. For optical communication, optical fibers are used for transmitting data. The main components of an optical system are:
Transmitter
Light Source
Modulator/Demodulator
Transmission Channel
Optical Fibers
The message to be sent is encoded by the transmitter into an optical form of signal. Thia optical signal is transmitted to the destination using transmission channel. After reaching the destination, the signal is decoded back into its original form by a receiver.
Optical Communication has a number of advantages thats why it is replacing the electrical mode of transmission. LEDs or Laser is used as the transmitting source which emit light of high wavelength and this light travels through the optical fiber following the concept of total internal reflection. Optical Communication can be a good topic for M.Tech thesis in Digital Communication and Electronics and Communication Engineering.
Types of Optical Fibers in Optical Communication
Following are the two types of optical fibers mainly used in optical communication:
Single-mode Optical Fibers – In these type of fibers, one signal is transmitted per fiber and mainly used in telephone and television sets.
Multi-mode Optical Fibers – In these type of fibers, multiple signals are transmitted in a single fiber and used in computer and local area networks.
Photo detectors in Optical Communication
Light signal is the mode of transmission in optical communication. To convert this light signal into electrical signal a device is used known as Photo detector. PN photo diode and avalanche photo diode are the two types of photo detectors used in optical communication.
Benefits of Optical Communication
Optical Communication is replacing the traditional mode of communication due to its following benefits:
High Bandwidth
Low transmission loss
Wide transmission range
No chance of electromagnetic interference
Disadvantages of Optical Communication
In spite of certain benefits, there are some disadvantages of optical communication which are as follows:
Optical fibers are difficult to join and there also occurs loss of light due to scattering.
Optical fibers are very expensive for large scale installation.
Optical fibers are highly susceptible to damage.
Optical fibers cannot be bend or curved.
These were some of the current topics in the field of digital communication for thesis, research and M.Tech projects. Techsparks provide thesis help in Digital Communication.

What Are Communication Research Topics?
Communication studies is an academic field that integrates aspects of sociology, psychology, media and politics to examine human communication. It's an incredibly dynamic field that explores how information is transmitted and understood among people, organizations, cultures, or nations.
In this regard, communication research topics cover a wildly diverse range of areas. Some subjects might revolve around understanding social media algorithms, while others focus on the power of political speeches. Basically, if your research explores sending, receiving, and understanding of messages – it fits right into communication studies.
Characteristics of Good Communication Research Paper Topics
Finding the right communication topics for a research paper is like looking for the perfect ingredient. It's not just about grabbing the first thing you see. Instead, you need to select a topic that satisfies your professor’s requirements and adds value to the academic conversation.
So, what makes a communication research paper topic truly stand out? The answer is simple. You should be governed by a few key attributes that elevate a topic from good to great. Below are some of these features:
- Present-time significance Choose a topic that resonates with contemporary issues. These subjects may vary from understanding the impact of social media on public discourse to exploring the ethics in digital advertising.
- Novelty Communication field is vast, but repetitive themes can lose their appeal. Strive for novelty. A fresh viewpoint or a new exploration in a familiar domain can make your paper truly distinctive.
- Practicality Grand ideas are wonderful, but an effective topic is the one that can be comfortably researched given your resources and timeframe. Consider your access to data, available literature, and your expertise while navigating through research topics for communication.
- Personal engagement A study should keep you involved. Your own enthusiasm can make the research process more rewarding.
- Precision A crucial attribute is the scope. An overly broad topic can lead to a surface-level discussion, while a hyper-narrow theme can limit the scope of your research. Make sure your communication research topic keeps that balance.
How to Choose a Communication Research Topic?
Selecting a good research topic in communication can be a time-consuming process since there are many areas to pick from. But with these steps, making a choice can be way easier.
- Discover Stay updated with the latest trends, theories, and debates in communication studies. This can help you identify emerging or important areas that could form the basis of your title.
- Ideate Generate a list of possible topics for communication research based on your readings, interests, and specific requirements. Ensure these themes are intriguing and meet instructions.
- Refine Critically assess your ideas considering the availability of resources for research. Narrow down your list to ideas that can be researched with the resources you have.

- PhD Topics in Digital Signal Processing
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is the route of studying and transforming a signal to regulate its processing. PhD topics in Digital Signal Processing displays how it manifest itself to operate several arithmetical and statistical algorithms to model any digital signals to generate a corresponding outcome from it.
Starts from the discrete time signal processing, we work on our way via Sampling, Fourier analysis, Filter Design, Interpolation and Quantization that builds signal processing toolset. It’s sufficient to complete and analyze the real-time communication.
What is DSP?
The DSP is an archetype with a dedicated microprocessor chip for the required settings of a signal. It is built upon MOS allied circuit chips. They are mostly assisting by,
- Functional Analysis
- Stochastic Calculus
- Game Theory
How does DSP work?
The DSP system models are linked with the designs of the programmed system. That necessitates precise arithmetical models to upgrade their features. That is fairly perfect to adapt the methods for latest applications. Further, every methods and technique of DSP is usually related to multiple signal processing algorithms.
Furthermore, DSP is involved in linear or nonlinear process. Nonlinear signal processing is related to nonlinear system recognition and execute in the time, frequency, and spatio-temporal domains. The DSP projects are focused on the following computations,
- Compress, Filter and Measure the real analog and digital signals
- Effective storage prototype to obtain loads of information at a time.
- Its Microprocessor performs DSP algorithms correctly, but it is not capable to do that process regularly at present.
- Uses DCT as a dynamic compressive technology for DSPs
Consequently, we suggest you our discoveries of the real-time area of interest on PhD topics in Digital Signal Processing. For instance, smart grid is an emerging field in DSP in which energy efficiency and power quality monitoring is an essential idea in current days. Those few novel topics are listed here.
Research Topics in DSP
- Smart systems Programming
- DSP in optics and image processing
- FPGAs, VLSI, and ASIC for DSP
- Straight and untidy form of digital signals
- Arithmetical modelling of Arbitary digital signals
- Encoding and Decoding of digital signals
- Hidden data in digital signals
- Demand response in Smart Grids
- Distribution and Transmission Networks
Performance Analysis in DSP
Currently, DSPs applications are branch out in all the departments of engineering. Because of every torrent of digital data that must need some kind of arithmetical analysis and working method to prove a better result in DSP. Those results are weighed up by its performance-based factors that are we depict clear-cut in PhD topics in Digital Signal Processing. The system modal parameters in DSP are follows.
- Brand power
- Electricity
Performance Metrics in DSP
- Biomedical Signals
- F- calculation
- True and False positive
- True and False negative
- Sensitivity
- Wireless Communications
- Block Error rate (BLER)
- Channel Capacity and Throughput
- Modulation Error Ratio (MER)
- Error Vector Magnitude (EVM)
- Adjacent Channel Power Ration (SCPR)
- Bit Error Rate (BER)
We are much better to do research on all listed areas of DSP. Of course, we are the right place for your extraordinary PhD projects. Because we have numerous experts in all the field of engineering who guide in every struggle of your PhD thesis upto the final stages of your work. Hope us – we guaranty for successful PhD projects.
