Communication and Knowledge Transfer Through New Media

Much of what we used to do offline is increasingly shifting to the digital space. An almost unmanageable variety of websites, platforms, apps and social networks make it possible to inform, learn, share, communicate and collaborate. All of this is difficult to imagine without the internet. The Bachelor's degree course in Communication and Knowledge Media sees this as a great opportunity and educates young people on how to become experts in communication and knowledge transfer on the internet. They can design web applications, implement them technically and adapt them to the needs of users. They understand how to design the content of digital media and use it successfully in communication, learning and work processes. Equipped with sound technical and social science skills, our graduates are in demand on the job market because they are able to understand digital media holistically and design them proactively.
