MA/MS in Interactive Design

Interactive Design (MA) is a second-cycle master's course within Visual Communication Design at ALUO, the fine arts and design academy of the University of Ljubljana. It lasts two years, or four semesters, and carries 120 ECTS credits. It is one of four courses within the Visual Communication Design master's study, alongside Photography, Graphic Design and Illustration. The course aims to train interaction designers with an independent artistic voice who can respond to the challenges of both the digital and the physical world. Students develop an overall approach to design through independent work and by joining project teams drawn from several disciplines. The programme follows every stage of design, beginning with theory and research methods and moving through experimentation and conception to prototyping and the final realisation of projects. It combines creativity with an inventive use of technology and aims at complex design solutions of social and technological relevance. Graduates are prepared to enter into dialogue, think critically, lead multidisciplinary teams and communicate effectively.
