数字媒体技术(交互媒体与商学)

 

介绍

交互媒体与商学(IMB)专业是创新与商业通过新兴媒体技术得以交汇之处。它教授创新理念如何与技术、创造力和商业原则相结合,以产生可行的产品、服务和体验。

今天的社会要求现在的毕业生具备广泛的跨学科知识和技能,特别是能够将创造性、定量和人文理解相结合的能力。交互媒体与商学(IMB)的学生将面临想象和实施互动产品和服务的挑战,这些产品和服务无畏地探索最新可能的媒体、技术和通信方式。 IMB专业的学生还需要全面思考他们的工作对社会的影响以及商业价值,无论是涉及软件还是硬件、虚拟还是物理、产品还是实验。

IMB专业欢迎各种形式的创新创业兴趣 - 无论是大型组织或创业公司,无论是营利性或非营利性机构 - 以带来颠覆性变革并创造积极的社会影响。

IMB的学生将通过实施创造性的解决方案来找到实际的商业问题,从而获得设计和建构的思维模式并获得经验,以便为在全球各种组织的职业生涯或未来学习之旅做好充分准备。

课程

IMB的学生将在世界上最具活力的经济体之一 - 中国的世界商业和媒体之都 - 上海开始学习之旅。以IMB为专业或是辅修IMB的学生将学习独特的交互媒体与商学基础课程,例如介绍创新理论、早期商业概念、创意编码和用户体验设计的《APP实验室》。对于这些学生的第二类新兴媒体基础课程,IMB学生将从涉及交互设计、电子、计算和数字制作的《交互实验室》,涵盖包括成像、音频、视频和Web开发的数字媒体制作方法的《通信实验室》,或旨在为学生提供新媒体艺术的强大理论和历史背景的《什么是新媒体?》的课程之中选择。

其商学基础课程包括《全球商业经济学》,它使学生能够系统地了解国际商业环境,包括宏观经济理论,以及国际贸易和金融的作用。第二个基础课程《财务会计原理》帮助学生评估企业的现状,并评估其可能的未来前景。

学生还可以从商业、新兴媒体、艺术和设计、人文科学、社会科学和物理科学以及计算和数据等学科中选择一系列灵活的核心课程和选修课程。学生还有独特的机会去从事课程作业并获得其它全球商业和媒体资本的实践经验,尤其是在纽约、特拉维夫、伦敦和柏林。IMB专业学生通过综合研究和实践方法完成Capstone Studio课程,制作自己的互动项目和商业计划。

在大四的时候,IMB专业的学生将在他们的大四学年中完成为期一年的Capstone Studio课程,他们会把在专业课程中获得的知识和技能倾注于要设计的产品和其商业计划之上。在秋季,他们将经由指导进行背景研究以识别产品的机会、需求和工具,并构建和测试初始原型以探索和确定其最终产品的基本原理。一旦建立,他们将在春季学期期间继续开发其它原型以最终推出完整的产品。
