Additional information

Multimedia deals with versatile information processing in human-computer interaction. Multimedia engineering aims at combining complex information technologies and communication systems with digital audio, images and video, 3D graphics and advanced user interfaces. The Multimedia major subject provides an understanding of the fundamental aspects of the field and practical knowledge of multimedia systems technology. The studies include topics about human perception and multimodal integration, methods of processing multimedia signals, network protocols, systems and terminals, and standards for the representation and delivery of multimedia data. The student can complete only one of the three advanced study modules in Signal Processing (Computational Systems Biology, Multimedia or Signal Processing).
