Licence 3 in alternation “Innovation, Design and Digital”
The “Innovation, Design and Digital” work-study degree enables you to acquire a core of fundamental skills in information and communication sciences and practices. The reference bases taught are common with those of the Licence 3 at the University of Lyon 2 and are completed by a specific course at Télécom Saint-Étienne.
The course is offered on a one-year sandwich course, which allows you to complete it with specific professional experience.
You will learn to participate in the design, creation and operation of digital spaces (websites, social networks and digital applications), to prioritize information and to make it intelligible to users. Taking into account the design of interfaces will enable you to offer them an adapted navigation path. Finally, specific teaching on data and data visualisation will teach you to take into account and visually process both individual and collective data.
