The Master of Design and Innovation is a high performance and qualification programme aimed at professionals who wish to change the world through strategic design, sustainability and innovation.
It is conceived to provide a notable boost to our students’ professional development, positioning them as attractive profiles for companies and opening up new opportunities in their working lives.
The master concentrates on innovation and strategic design as the central and transversal axis at the same time, without losing sight of the impact that creative thought may have on companies. For the duration of the course, the students share common content and projects and, on the other hand, provides specific training for each one of the cohabiting disciplines: Product Design Lab, Strategic Design Lab and Communication Design Lab.
The Master of Design and Innovation develops unique skills and competences thanks to the diverse methodologies and experiences of the programme along with experts with a recognised track record.

Transversal education
Students on this programme will receive transversal training to make them professionals with a 360º vision of the corporate world. Designers in all fields require transversal knowledge of common design skills. Such knowledge: methodologies, experiences and laboratories, provides an efficient tool to understand the relations between people, the economy, our planet and design, enhancing the capacity to define the impact we need to become leaders in the future of our fragile ecosystem.
Shared education
Around 70% of Master addresses teaching methodologies and tools which are useful for one discipline or another. It reinforces the concept of a multidisciplinary education, enhancing the experience and collaborative learning by design.
Specific education
Each discipline has its own set of projects and subjects where the specific skills are improved through detailed experiences and challenges. Almost all specific activities are projects with/for real clients and scenarios, subjects and the Final MDI Personal Project.
Designers working in any discipline, architects and engineers with academic and professional experience, who want to specialize and materialize an idea into a specific product or project. We recommend that participants arrive at the Masters with a project in mind, since the program offers them the ideal time and place to do it. This Master is a multidisciplinary and international program, on the frontier between design and production.
Why do we travel?
Master in Design of Innovation journey is an experience that creates essential moments for learning and personal growth. A journey that has the power to change students' perception of innovation and design, providing them with opportunities for connections with the world of work or carrying out real projects in other countries that help them to open their minds and contrast different working methodologies.
Designing, implementing and communicating is most effective when it is done through a concrete and real project. In addition, they will have a social vision, loaded with values of a sustainable nature, responding to the needs of today's society.
One of the main characteristics will be multidisciplinary. The trip will be carried out by students from the three routes: a union of talents to carry out social innovation actions that generate a positive impact on the area of action.
During the course, visits and trips will be programmed, always under the supervision of the evolution of the pandemic, and following the instructions of the health authorities both at the Spanish and international level.
