COURSE CURRICULUM

The MSc in Creative Technologies at Winchester School of Art equips students with the skills to innovate at the intersection of art, design, and digital technology. Core modules focus on collaborative practices, creative industry research, and the development of coding and technical skills for creative applications. Students engage with programming, robotics, front-end web design, wearable technology, and applied computing environments, building both practical and conceptual expertise. Historical, theoretical, and aesthetic contexts are explored in the Ideas in Art and Technology module, enabling students to situate their practice within broader creative and technological debates. The program culminates in an independent final project that integrates theory and practice, allowing students to make an innovative contribution to the creative technologies sector. Elective modules provide additional opportunities to tailor the course to individual interests, including creative thinking and problem solving, digital cultures, entrepreneurship, experimental publishing, visual display, global marketing, sustainability in business and design, and visual culture. Students benefit from hands-on workshops, industry-facing projects, and opportunities to collaborate with creative organisations, cultural institutions, and practitioners. By combining technical skills, research-led practice, and creative exploration, graduates of the MSc in Creative Technologies are well-prepared for diverse careers in digital media, immersive experiences, user experience design, and creative industries, equipped to respond to evolving technological and artistic challenges.
