Master in Creative Computing and Artificial Intelligence

The Master in Creative Computing and Artificial Intelligence (MCCAI) aims to be a strong option for professionals whose activities require the development of new skills in emerging technological areas, in order to respond to the permanent challenges of the industry.

It is a pioneering program in Portugal and Europe, which brings technology closer to creativity and art, and aims to operate in the emerging areas of these intersections.

Covers areas as diverse as artificial intelligence, creative computing, IoT, emerging technologies, machine learning, computer graphics, which, integrated, allow the development of complex projects related to intelligent systems, interactive virtual and augmented reality, holograms, autonomous robots, among others.

Based on a project-based learning methodology (PBL), MCCAI endows students with the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical application in the development of multi-disciplinary projects focused on solving complex challenges.

Why to study a Master's degree in Creative Computing and Artificial Intelligence?

Master's degree that allies the area of technology with creativity
  • Innovative and pioneering training that combines the area of technologies with the areas of creativity and the arts.
  • It prepares students to be competent professionals capable of working in research and development of emerging technological products, in order to respond to the growing challenges of the industry.
  • It allows them to develop a portfolio of multidisciplinary projects, with strong growth and demand from industry.
  • Students have the opportunity to be in contact with industry, through public presentations of projects with the participation of specialized professionals.
Teaching methodology
  • Based on a project-based learning methodology (PBL), the Master in Creative Computing and Artificial Intelligence endows students with the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical application in the development of multi-disciplinary projects focused on solving complex challenges.
  • In the projects developed in the scope of the master's degree some of the development areas may be related to smart environments, smart houses, and smart cities, robotics, intelligent digital systems, virtual and augmented reality, holograms, among many other possibilities.
Factory | IADE's Special Projects Unit

The Factory integrates the Project Unit, the Technical Labs and the Observatory.

It is also a platform for the dissemination of ideas, projects and creative challenges where you participate as an IADE student.

In this unit, where value and knowledge are produced, there is a clear bet on the relationship between students, teachers, laboratories and civil society.

The Factory's projects are defined essentially in three lines of action: parallel fabrication (development of extracurricular projects); curricular fabrication (projects within the school context and in collaboration with civil society partners) and future fabrication (applied research to the development of projects designed and created from scratch).
