Course description

Our society is on the move. Digital media is reshaping how we think about “space” and “distance.” Today, an entire industry focuses on sharing and creating information, brands, and experiences in media spaces. The University of Europe for Applied Sciences (UE) equips you with the skills to turn communication in both virtual and physical spaces into memorable experiences. In the New Media Design master’s program, previously known as Media Spaces, you’ll learn to analyze and use spatial, moving, and non-linear forms of expression. You’ll apply these skills to your own spatial concepts. As a graduate, you’ll be ready to tackle complex design and technological challenges with a strong foundation in media competence. This program places you in an ideal position to develop advanced solutions for multi-disciplinary challenges. You’ll gain the expertise needed to create inspiring and lasting experiences in the ever-evolving media landscape.
