Our focus

This program is the ideal scenario to develop skills that will allow you to design interactive communication experiences, create multi-platform narratives, experiment with data visualization exercises and analyze the social context from multiple perspectives.

Why study Communication?

The current state of affairs in our world offers a great number of challenges that communication, as a field of action, must assume in an effective and creative way. The digitalization of information flows, of the forms of production and of our daily life, require the development of new technical skills, narratives and ways of thinking that seek to bring together millions of user communities in continuous interaction. Therefore, executing communication as a profession today is one of the most direct ways to connect and actively participate in the processes that are paving the way of the future of society.
