The role of the art director is undergoing a profound transformation. It is no longer an isolated position driven solely by creative intuition, but a set of multidisciplinary skills that span design vision, technology, branding and collaboration with cross-functional teams.

In this landscape, anyone aiming to work in communication design must be able to combine creativity and method, master advanced technical tools and, most importantly, identify the most effective operational strategy for each project. This evolution directly involves those who envision a future in an art direction program or a visual design master’s path.

The Master’s Degree in Design and Communication was created precisely to respond to these new needs, training professionals capable of moving confidently across communication, visual design and innovation. The program offers a complete and up-to-date learning experience, ideal for students looking for a design course that integrates creativity, technology and strategic thinking.

Throughout the Master, students develop a broad set of competencies, ranging from skills typical of a branding course, to interface design found in a UX design program, all the way to multimedia production aligned with a videomaking course, building a truly competitive profile in today’s communication landscape.

Why Choose This Programme?

Through a contemporary approach to communication design, we focus on the competencies most sought after by employers, providing an experience that goes beyond a traditional design course.

To ensure a strong connection between education and the professional world, the Master relies on a faculty composed of industry experts actively working in leading companies.

Throughout the program, students have access to advanced equipment that enables them to explore every phase of the creative and production process with a practical, professional approach. It is an environment designed for those who want to build multidisciplinary skills and turn them into a true competitive advantage.
