Our programmes – your future
At Macromedia University, our focus is on our students. We aim to create a space where they can develop. We promote key competencies like communications skills and an entrepreneurial mindset. A large part of our courses is based on practical projects which take the form of individual coaching. Digital transformation is fundamentally changing the structure of our professional world and we need people at the heart of these changes who are able to think across disciplines and take on personal responsibility. These are the people we are educating. As the university for digital transformation, we see our role as enablers: we enable our students to understand and shape change. The process and the outcome can be encapsulated succinctly: you change.
Our study programmes are a blend of theoretical lectures and practical project work. Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their studies and are given the opportunity to engage with leading media figures and key players from international organizations, who work closely with the university as guest lecturers and project sponsors. We offer full-time Bachelor courses and postgraduate Master’s degree courses for an international career path in the media and communications sector. All programmes are accredited by FIBAA and lead to an internationally recognised degree. A collaboration with our UK partner, the University of Westminster, allows us to offer additional Bachelor Degrees within our undergraduate programmes.
