About the program

Master's study program NEW MEDIA ART is multi-disciplinary, dynamic, real practice led, research-based, oriented towards cooperation and communication. Two Pathways are offered: - ACOUSTIC ARTS / DIGITAL MUSIC - DIGITAL NETWORKED MEDIA.

学生将掌握各种新媒体（互动、多媒体、声音、网络等）工具和创作艺术作品的技能。该课程的关键是研究——包括研究艺术过程。重点是艺术作为研究——在新媒体艺术中，这意味着艺术家不仅是艺术作品的创作者，也是新工具、媒体、技术、社会过程、科学发现的研究者和实践者。

Assessment

对学生知识的评估是一个持续的过程，持续整个学期，并在独立作业和测试以及每年两次的学分测试和考试的基础上进行。在学期期间，每个模块都设想了几个独立作业——个人和小组作业、测试和报告。在每个模块结束时，都会展示模块作业和最终项目（展示向公众开放）并进行评估（参与者包括学生、讲师、项目主管和艺术研究实验室员工、观众）。

In addition to that, each study programme in Liepaja University is evaluated on a regular basis according to Quality Control System.

Assessment is made by a ten-point scale or with the help of a credit test.
