Bachelor s Degree ProgramExpanded Realities
The Program. What does it consist of?Whether games or medicine, school, industry or science: virtual reality and expanded realities in general are about to break into almost every area of life. They will soon be-come part of everyday life just like the smartphone today. Students are helping to shape this future in the internatio-nal bachelor’s program Expanded Realities. They conceive, design and develop new worlds and applications and con-tribute to a completely new media language. They master the technological aspects of virtual, augmented or mixed reality as well as the creative and conceptual production of content and develop an understanding of the ethical and social dimensions of this new medium.
Fields of practice. How will this degree support me professionally?The prospects are diverse and promising as more and more sectors are working with Expanded Realities, in-cluding media and entertainment, but also industry and academia. Typical professions and work areas are: • Direction and production of applications and products in
the field of Expanded Reality • Conception and development of technologies and appli-
cations in the field of ER • Interaction and experience design, as well as 3-D world-
building & ER storytelling • Marketing of relevant media products
Modules. What s the program s structure?Essential technical, creative and scientific basics are taught in the first two semesters. From the third semester onwards, the practical workshops take up a central role. Here, students work in teams on increasingly complex practical projects with high-tech equipment, as they will be doing later in their professional lives. In the fourth seme-ster the students spend the practical phase in a company. Further Expanded Realities workshops are followed by a research project and the bachelor‘s thesis in the seventh semester.
