Introduction

Master in Data Design

In this world of flat-earthers and “alternative facts”, transforming data into understandable and honest information is a matter of societal survival. Our Master in Data Design is a hands-on experience harnessing data for crafting information and making a change.

In the Master in Data Design, we learn from the latest practices in research, data analysis, visualisation and storytelling to create projects beyond classical formats.

Nowadays, we have access to almost everything, anywhere and anytime, but that doesn't mean we know the world any better.

Last year we collectively generated, collected and stored more data than in the five previous millennia of recorded human history. We are addicted to those pushes on our phones but cannot process them.

We may have heard or read there has been a two-degree increase in the temperature of the planet or a 1.5 average in the dispersion of a virus, but we have no idea what that means.

Misinformation and fake news have become just as significant as factual information. Our role as information and data designers is vital for all these reasons. In this Master in Data Design, we will create tools to help our societies find their way in this chaotic scenario, creating empathetic systems capable of extracting meaning and communicating messages.
