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.
