Multimedia Communication (UPV-EITB) (Official Master)

Nowadays it is clear which are the challenges that the professionals dedicated to communication in Basque face: the creation of products adapted to multimedia mediums that, in order to be both effective and attractive, must be also adapted to the requirements of multimedia communication in Basque. Both UPV lecturers and EITB professionals have taken these challenges into account when jointly designing a master's degree in Multimedia Communication. The main aim of this master's curriculum and practice is meeting the current needs of those professionals who are going to carry out their work in Basque.   

From an academic point of view, the master divides into three main points: the first one would be the development of the students' communicative skills, taking into account the linguistic resources that best adapt to the different conditions regarding multimedia communication; the second one would be training students in the current multimedia communication technology and techniques, and especially in the new tools Internet currently offers to journalists; and, third and last, going into the knowledge of the media market in order to guarantee the effectiveness and attractiveness of the products as far as possible.

In order to meet such an objective, apart from the contribution from most communication agencies and media in Basque, we count on the experience and the help from the main television in Basque, that is, EITB. This master combines the teaching experience of some of the lecturers of the Faculty of Social Sciencies and Communication of the UPV with the experience of those professionals who have had a long and productive career at EITB. Both experiences will come together in an elaborate and solid academic and practice programme.
