From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
International School of New Media (short ISNM) in Lübeck, Germany is an international, affiliated institute at the University of Lübeck. ISNM offers a graduate program conducted entirely in English leading to an award of a M.Sc. in Digital Media degree. The 24-month long program received international accreditation by ZeVA Hannover.
ISNM was established in 2001 for the purpose of providing a course that combines the
- Technological,
- Scientific,
- Social,
- Economical, and
- Cultural aspects and implications of New Media.
At ISNM, students get to work and study with peers with diverse cultural and educational backgrounds. For instance, architects, computer scientists, artists, and sociologists can work together on a project as a team.
The M.Sc. in Digital Media program provides academic training in interdisciplinary media competence. It connects media technology, informatics, design and e-commerce with the New Media in the arts, culture and society. The M.Sc. degree qualifies students for leading positions at cross sections of digital media in business, industry, research, education, tourism and international organisations, among others.
The ISNM’s interdisciplinary graduate program in Digital Media aims at creating decision-makers and managers in every sector and discipline with a more complete understanding of digital media's role in the 21st century’s global world and market. The program follows a concerted strategy to reach this goal by providing a unique combination of technology, business, research, arts, design and culture in the Digital Media sector. Substantial emphasis is placed on the transfer of learning from the university to the work setting and an integration of our students’ diverse backgrounds into interdisciplinary project management and intercultural teamwork.
ISNM founders as Hubertus von Amelunxen have set the standard for the faculty whose teaching and research is consistently influencing the new media practices. The faculty is a distinguished group with honors and research awards on their credits.
