Overview
The main goal of this two-year programme is to teach students how to develop visual communication strategies capable of addressing complex domains using ever-evolving languages and tools within interdisciplinary projects. This approach is framed within the unique cultural and professional setting of Rome, a crossroads of cultures and a privileged observatory of Italy's social and political transformations. Here, visual communication plays a pivotal role across sectors: from tourism and heritage enhancement to entertainment with the film industry and major events, as well as work with institutions and governmental or non-governmental organisations.
Key Facts
By integrating emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence design, data visualisation, and video storytelling, students will acquire both practical and theoretical skills through a collaborative approach.
