PORTUGAL, Porto: Creative Industries

The Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) in Creative Industries is aimed at students engaged in the arts and creative fields (visual arts, design, music, theatre, dance, multimedia, film, etc.) who wish to strengthen their skills to operate in international and interdisciplinary contexts.
The programme's mission is to develop students' initiative, creativity and leadership capacity through collaborative experiences between institutions from several countries, preparing them to become creative, innovative professionals who are aware of their role in Society.
Throughout the programme, participants work in international, multidisciplinary teams, exploring challenges related to the creative industries and sustainability, in line with the EU Green Deal
