Creative Technology Research (60 Credits)
  • The first stage module focuses on the development of your research practice; you’ll have the opportunity to design and plan an innovative research project relating to your core interests in creative technologies.
  • The assessment tasks are designed to allow you to demonstrate your developing practice as a researcher at postgraduate level. Throughout the module you will work collaboratively with peers to conduct a small-scale research project, which you'll present verbally.
Creative Technology Development
  • The aim of this module is to review and consolidate research surrounding innovative product development within your chosen media technology discipline, and provide you with a framework for the development of your own creative technology production.
  • You will investigate operational issues and technical considerations required for the production management of your creative technology assets and products. You will need to undertake experimentation and prototyping as appropriate, and undertake sustained reflection against your professional and personal aims and objectives, identified in the first module.
Creative Technology Production
  • This module is the third and final stage of three consecutive modules. It’s the final realisation of your proposal, presented in the Creative Technology Research module. You’re expected to demonstrate how your research has developed into a professional, creative technology outcome.
