Master Interactive Media (M.Sc.)

Career & Future Prospects
With this Master you’re well prepared for creative-tech jobs in fields like UX/UI design, game development, VR/AR, multimedia production, interactive installations, visual effects, digital media studios, or tech-driven start-ups. The field is particularly dynamic in the Berlin-Brandenburg region’s creative + media industry. 

Because the program blends technical skills (CS) and creative media/design, you’ll stand out: you can work on both backend/engine development and frontend/user experience/design.

What is this program about?
Interactive Media brings together computer science, media technology and creative design. Whether it's apps, games, websites or smart-home interfaces — you learn to make digital experiences that are not only functional, but also intuitive, immersive and engaging. With this Master’s you dive deep into media design, media tech, human-computer interaction, game design, 3D media, AI-based media, and more to shape the digital future.
