I was tickled to learn in leafing through Ralkf Dahrendorf’s history of the LSE that one of the key early courses at the LSE was Railway Economics (not phased out until 1947). So there’s a sound historical precedent for the manner in which my own masters degree, New Media Information and Society links broad disciplines (sociology, media studies, information systems) and a particular topical focus.
