Starting fall 2012 – the Digital Media Program is offered exclusively in Stockholm. Read more here.
Digital Media is a program in which you can explore three essential pathways within the field of digital and interactive media: Design, Management and Technology. Throughout the program students will develop deeper knowledge of one or more of these areas, and at the same time be challenged to find a broad and holistic way of working.
Students will work in close collaboration with industry professionals, drawing on their insight and experience in order to respond to real briefs, set by real clients from their real needs.
At Hyper Island, you will be in an environment that mirrors the workplace, and will innovate solutions to overcome real challenges that you will face as a professional. Furthermore, you will develop entrepreneurial skills, a capacity to create business strategies, understand group dynamics processes and practice self-leadership, giving you the tools to make it on your own.
English is the working language at Hyper Island, and people join us from all over the world. We currently host students from no less than 19 different countries, a number that continues to grow each year.
This program covers the following:
- Group dynamics and self-leadership
- Brand management and development
- Idea and concept development
- Business and entrepreneurship
- Creative development
- Project and production management and coordination
- Visual and market communication
- Programming and development
Led by industry professionals from across the globe, Digital Media is an “action learning” (learning-by-doing and learning-by-reflection) program, built around actual projects.
Internship within our global network:
During your final 30 weeks you will undertake an internship, most likely with one of the 600 companies in Hyper Island’s global network. Over many years Hyper Island has formed strong connections with the industry and, through your internship, you will be given an opportunity to build an international network of contacts and opportunities.
Infinite career possibilities:
After you graduate from this program you will be able to work as a Creative Designer, Producer and/or Developer or a Project Manager. You will leave us with the ability to:
- Develop and design digital products and services
- Lead a creative team from concept phase through production to final delivery
