The School of Art & Design at Salford University in Greater Manchester,
offers two Masters programmes in Creative Technology and in Creative
Games to critically study social, philosophical, historical, and
artistic aspects of new technologies and to work with them in a
practice-based context.
The philosophy of the programmes is expressed through the following
features:
* Understanding the various approaches, methods, and issues related to
digital technology, serious games, and creative practice.
* Gaining specific skills in a number of areas including creative
thinking, research methods, games, visualization, multi-media,
interactivity, and telematics.
* Developing the ability to think dynamically and creatively.
* Gaining the expertise to focus on a specific avenue of interest, carry
out enquiries and experiment, and produce pioneering projects or realize
innovative working prototypes and solutions.
If you are interested in the aesthetic, philosophical, computing, or
cultural aspects of Creative Games, and have a BSc or equivalent in
arts, design, computer science, or equivalent, MSc Creative Games might
be the master program for you.
If you are interested in new and emerging technologies in a wider sense,
you might want to consider studying on the MA Creative Technology.
The programmes have a length of one year for full-time students and two
years for part-time students, and lead to an MA/MSc degree. Students can
apply now and begin their studies in September.
