MA (European Masters) Ludic Interfaces

The Ludic Interfaces course uses a variety of teaching and learning methods and formats: lectures, seminars, practical classes, colloquia, excursions, internships and workshops and its own international conference.

Lectures and Impulse Lectures (L/IL): Lectures serve the purpose of conveying a systematic overview and/or a deepening of knowledge in sub-fields of Ludic Interfaces, or a related field of science or the arts.

Seminars: Seminars are at the junction between the transfer of knowledge and independent research.

Practical Classes: Practical Classes serve the purpose of testing, analysing and deepening knowledge in a particular sub-field of Ludic Interfaces.

Workshops: Workshops are theme-based classes that are taught as a block with continuous assessment of course work.

Colloquia: Colloquia serve the purpose of advanced scientific and artistic dialogue and the joint formulation of questions and issues on a topical subject in the field of Ludic Interfaces.

Excursions: Excursions allow for the exemplification of media products, works, exhibitions, issues, approaches and landscapes.

Internships: Internships allow you to gain practical and professional experience during your studies and get an insight on how your training can be applied in the future.

Assessment

Courses are concluded with a graded certificate of achievement that corresponds to the nature of the course. Depending on the format and content of a course the students will be assessed through an oral, written or artistic-scientific examination which will clearly be explained at the beginning of the course. The examiner is responsible for conveying the course material in such a way that the examination requirements are foreseeable. Each module is concluded with a grade. Students gain the ECTS points of a module after achieving a pass grade. The course will fit assessment methods to the learning aims of each individual module and the grading scale of each country and these grades are recognised by the other full partners of the consortium through a grade conversion table.

Each University, as agreed and signed by the institutional legal representatives, will issue the corresponding official certificate so the other full partners can recognise the credits passed at each HEI and deliver their national degrees. Recognition is fully granted. 180 credits minimum will gain the student access from PgDip to MA, through the negotiated thesis module.
