What it is
Traditional disciplines such as history, philosophy and art are combined with digital tools including algorithmic thinking, coding and data mining, so critical thinking is paired with quantitative skills. Faculty include humanities scholars and practitioners from the digital field, and the degree develops creativity, communication, ethics, foresight and cultural awareness. The first two years are in Segovia and the last two in Madrid, with exchange options and an immersion experience in Paris. Graduates work as technology ethics consultants, cultural institution managers, content creators, UX researchers, heritage experts or game creative directors.
