TOTAL CREDITS: 60 ECTS
This Master's Degree is taught using a blended learning method, using online modules through a platform adapted to the programme together with workshops and/or seminars for each of the modules, on Saturdays.
The techniques and content included in the programme have been selected by research experts meaning the student will apply the cutting-edge methods they will need in professional practice. The programme is linked to the creation of a project for companies in which the deliverables for each module are part of the development and evolution of the project. Students deal with the client from day one. During all the modules the students work applying Agile UX methodologies. Students will create work they will send on to customers from the very first module.
