About the Programme

The programme is intended for graduates with a bachelor's degree in design, visual arts, or a similar field. This curriculum emphasizes cultural institutions' dynamic roles at the intersection of academia, public education, media, entertainment, and technology. It prepares students for a wide range of environments, from traditional museums to immersive and digital venues, by addressing visual communication and branding challenges.

The location in Saint Petersburg, the so-called cultural capital of Russia, with historic institutions such as the Hermitage Museum, Russian Museum, and Manege, provides unequaled access to cultural landmarks. Students will work on genuine projects and create professional portfolios displaying their creativity and leadership potential under the guidance of renowned Russian designers. The program includes meetings with curators, conservators, museum directors, gallery managers, media representatives, independent experts, and international colleagues.
