The Ideograma - UPF Chair was created with the aim of promoting training, research and the divulgation of knowledge in the field of political communication, as well as its effects on democratic systems.

The collaboration between political communication consultancy and academia allows us to offer a series of activities aimed at disseminating science in this field, including the Ideograma - UPF Chair's Award.

The Ideograma - UPF Chair's Award  recognizes and rewards those Master's Thesis in the field of political and institutional communication. These investigations must have been presented during the 2019/20 academic year and it doesn’t matter if the Master isn’t focused in the political and institucional communication area while the Master’s Thesis does it.
