At the Creative Media Summer School, taking place from 21–25 June 2027, ideas take shape and develop into real impact.
Students from the Department of Media and Digital Technologies and partner universities come together to explore new perspectives, work on real challenges, and develop ideas collaboratively.
Whether on Campus St. Pölten or online, the Summer School creates space for exchange, experimentation, and new ways of understanding what media means today—shaped by people, questions, and application.
