About the Programme

Have you ever heard that only one hemisphere of the brain dominates the human body – the “logical” left or the “creative” right? Students of the Multimedia and Internet Technologies programme are living proof that both sides of the brain can work equally powerfully at the same time! This study programme combines technology and art: from 2D and 3D animation to virtual and augmented reality, from digital video and audio synthesis to game development and robotics. Here, you will not only explore creative forms of expression but also learn to build internet systems – analysing, designing, and implementing everything from the simplest dynamic Web 2.0 applications to complex digital solutions and beyond. So, if your mind is both analytical and imaginative, and if you want to build the internet of tomorrow and become a creator of our virtual future, then you are the perfect fit for this study programme!
