Abstract
The gathering of multiple individuals dealing with different knowledge subject matters constitutes an enormous potential for any university. If this encounter is really translated into a lively academic community, the manifest result would be a condition of possibility whereby knowledge and information can be created, recreated, and given new meanings. Thus, research on or within communication, is in urgent need of links and shared languages: research requires reducing dispersion and facilitating conversation, dialogue, socialization, and publications. A project, i.e., a clear research line and program, requires an educational environment where to be and to talk together foster the emergence of dissent and consensus, of new theories and sciences. Still, in the context of universities and higher education, research is not only a question of what and how, it is also a question of why do we do research for.
