Course programme
You will split your time between the Glasgow School of Art (Digital Design Studio) and the University of Glasgow (Laboratory of Human Anatomy). The programme is structured into three stages.
Stage one: digital technologies applied to medical visualisation (delivered by the Digital Design Studio at the Glasgow School of Art)
Core courses- 3D modelling and animation
- Applications in medical visualisation
- Volumetric and 3D surface visualisation
- Core research skills for postgraduates.
Stage two: human anatomy (delivered by the Laboratory of Human Anatomy at the University of Glasgow).
