The Specialization Diploma in Interactive Design and Emerging Technologies provides you with the specialized tools and skills to face any challenges that the technological evolution may present us with.
⟶ The main objective is to apply the new technological models that are driving the digital revolution to the design process, in order to acquire the skills of a designer capable of mastering multidisciplinary environments where the physical and digital spheres merge.
⟶ Understanding new technological systems from a reflective, creative, functional, efficient and ethical point of view to meet the needs of a 5.0 society, where technology is increasingly integrated into life: Big Data, autonomous robots, simulation, Internet of Things (IoT), 3D printing, among many others.
