You will familiarise yourself with the essential tools needed for a digital nomad: 

Science, technology and society: Our seminars and workshops will focus on fundamental technological, philosophical, sociological and ethical concepts. Listen, learn, and exchange ideas. Take a lateral approach, develop your critical thinking and broaden your outlook.

Intercultural communication and intercultural teamwork: Globally-minded professionals bring a broad skill set to the table. We will grow your confidence, teach you to appreciate differences of opinion, help you find common ground and recognize when a compromise is the way forward.

Entrepreneurial essentials: We concentrate on brainstorming, producing lean business models, and teaching you how to pitch and manage your time efficiently.

Get your first taste of basic programming, the principles of graphic design and storytelling. Create a simple storyboard for a game and learn about the use of digital tools for visual communication.

You will work as part of a team discovering the possibilities of digital marketing. Start by building your first interactive websites using HTML, CSS and Javascript. Master different storytelling techniques, and explore the principles of UX/UI design to ensure the web browsing experience is user friendly.

Set up your own design and development strategy, and work with microcontrollers to turn your concept into reality. During this project, you will immerse yourself in our FabLab.

Use sensors and small motors to make setups, enabling your model to perform a variety of tasks – grip, move and pick up things. Build digital 3D models, and bring them to life using 3D prints, laser cutting, animated film, or your own virtual environment.

Virtual reality transports people to new places and brings a new dimension to familiar surroundings. This project sees you create your own virtual experience.

Deepen your understanding of real-time 3D applications. Learn how to import 3D models, embed video recordings and animations, and programme interactivity. Then bring them to life with lighting, sound and visual effects.

As a digital strategist, you need to generate workable ideas that meet specific customer needs. In this module you will create digital 3D content with a clear focus on the experience of the users. Working in teams of two, you will build interactive and virtual experiences for specific clients. Compelling storytelling is key.

Technological progress has given us the means to optimise the way we live and work, from developing and refining microchips and sensors to testing new wireless communication technologies.

In this project you will experience life as an entrepreneur, using Future Design Thinking to tackle a societal challenge. Devise an innovative technological solution, while we help you grasp the basics of entrepreneurship. Then develop your concept into a viable start-up, ready to pitch to a panel of potential investors.
