Master studije iz Virtuelne Realnosti i Proširene Realnosti

Programme overview

Recent advances in computer graphics, sensors and screen technology give us unprecedented possibilities to completely immerse humans in virtual environments or augment real environments. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) constitute a completely new computing paradigm finding its way into applications for industry, health care, education, entertainment etc. This master's programme aims at educating qualified professionals who can design, implement and evaluate VR and AR applications while also considering the ethical, cultural, and social implications of such technology.

The master's programme offers a truly holistic approach to VR and AR technology in a world-class, multi-disciplinary research and learning environment. Courses in e.g. computer graphics, image analysis, interaction design, VR and AR are blended into a unified learning experience that covers the whole range from enabling technologies to the final user experience of VR/AR applications. At the core of the master's programme is the assumption that VR/AR technology is best learned when students fuse theoretical knowledge and technical skills with design thinking. This specifically means that active experimentation is a fundamental pillar of the master's programme, which means laboratory work and project assignments in Lund University's top tier laboratories. Examples of concrete content in the master's programme include:

• Computer graphics and its implications for VR/AR applications
• Image analysis and its applications in VR/AR tracking
• 3D interaction in VR/AR applications
• User-centred design methodology for VR/AR development

The demand for engineers specialised in VR/AR technology is increasing rapidly. For this reason, local and global companies are strongly committed to contributing to the master's programme in various ways. Most importantly, this means huge opportunities to make project assignments and master thesis for companies, solving real-world problems by applying VR/AR technology in a creative and innovative manner.
