Creativity, research excellence, strong performance and commitment are the building blocks of the Faculty of Media‘s success. This is a success story that has now continued for more than 20 years. Since it was founded in 1996, the Faculty has stayed true to the university’s philosophy: using its interdisciplinary nature to create synergies between the theoretical and scientific world and the artistic and experimental one – and always in the context of the media. Teaching activities focus on research-oriented and interdisciplinary project studies, i.e. close and concentrated group work on challenging projects with accompanying team spirit and independent action. In addition, our well-equipped laboratories, workshops and seminar rooms are the perfect place to implement personal ideas and successfully complete a course of study.
