Bachelor's in Creative Technologies

Advertising, shows, radio and television are changing. All communication is becoming more technological and new audiences, especially people who go to concerts, or follow movies and series online, are looking for new ways to interact with their favorite content.

The degree in Creative Technologies was born to break barriers and allow those who, liking technology, but having a passion for the arts, audiovisuals, or advertising, to have a career in this area.

Each semester of the course in Creative Technologies explores a different technological area (video production and editing, digital cinematography, virtual and/or augmented reality, Internet of Things), working on multi-sensory and creative brand activation solutions and creating solutions that are tested in real events. The use of Augmented Reality (AR) in fashion, the creation of Virtual Reality (VR) experiences or the production of videomapping shows are some of the most emblematic works of the students in this degree.

This is the degree that will put your creativity to the test. You will be part of a community of students, teachers and professionals in the entertainment and communication industry.
