This Doctoral Programme is organised by the University of A Coruña. The Programme is aimed at research, development and innovation (R+D+i) in three major thematic areas: Documentation Sciences, Communication Sciences and Humanities.
All this within the context of offering new perspectives, which are certainly furrowed by the successive developments in the field of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and by the change of the production model towards models of Knowledge Economy and Sustainable Economy. In addition, the possibilities opened up by the Industrial Campus of the University of A Coruña (the Ferrol Campus), which are considered of great interest for the Doctoral Programme, and the ability to progressively incorporate new areas of knowledge present in the UDC, are very much taken into account.

Within the framework of the general scientific objectives, the Doctoral Programme "New Perspectives in Documentation, Communication and Humanities" has among its main goals the following:
(i) to deepen in an exhaustive and systematic manner the knowledge of the state of the art in one or more thematic areas addressed (i.e. disciplinarity and multidisciplinarity);
II) to promote synergies and knowledge transfer between different disciplinary areas, to promote interdisciplinarity and, where appropriate, transdisciplinarity; y
III) to activate in students the necessary skills, both procedural and methodological (and, where appropriate, technical) aimed at making it possible to carry out, present and defend a Doctoral Thesis in which the obtaining of new knowledge (basic or applied) on one or more thematic areas presented is reflected.
There are three thematic areas considered as lines of research: 1) Information Sciences, 2) Communication Sciences (with its various branches, such as Journalism or Audiovisual Communication) and 3) Humanities (mainly, Philosophy and History). At the same time, in these three lines of research
