The MAS Program in Interaction Design offers to graduate students an advanced professional training that amalgamates the design culture with the technological innovation and social changes. As a specialized course, the MAS Program in Interaction Design merges knowledge coming from the design disciplines in a unique profile able to set new thinking in design, in the technological innovation and in the human needs.
