ADSI Concentration
The SEIM Concentration in Art and Design for Social Impact (ADSI) is designed for students who want to innovate within the creative industries sector and make a positive impact through art and culture. Students will be taught the underlying skills necessary to manage everything from the development of new methods for the presentation of exhibits in museums, to the use of technologies, such as AI, in visual advertisements and the movie industry. They will also learn how to use both innovative management techniques, and an entrepreneurial mindset, to ensure their projects have a positive social impact.
Students opting for the ADSI Concentration will take 2 courses which focus on applying design and innovation know-how in the context of both the creative industries and of intangible cultural heritage. The Interactive Arts and Technology course will provide students with hands-on experience of using digital and other technologies relevant to the creative arts and industries. The Design Methods for Arts and Culture course will teach similar problem-solving concepts and methods as the SEIM equivalent, but will look at them in the context of revitalising aspects of our intangible cultural heritage and of innovation within the creative industries.
