MA Creative Technology

Course Overview

This course allows you to explore a subject-specific practice in the expanding creative industry and its wider confines. You will consider the role of technology in society, whilst developing projects that look to explore the relevance, importance and future of this industry through analysis, experimentation and implementation of creative ideas.

Throughout the course, you will be encouraged to undertake independent contextual and theoretical research that will improve your capacity for independent enquiry, creativity and professional practice. The course places an emphasis on problem setting rather than problem solving, through the development of self-initiated projects and briefs.

There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in live projects as we work closely with key cultural organisations within the North West. 

You will:

• Develop your creative thinking skills through practical and theoretical discourse

• Engage in the development of a high level, skills-based practice

• Capitalise on professional opportunities such as placements and freelance projects with key organisation
