Program description
The Multimedia Arts program is a three-year journey through the most important expressive languages of contemporary art.
The art world has expanded dramatically during the past two decades. Artworks have steadily moved away from the material and into the realm of software, presenting viewers with completely novel and forward-looking worlds, perspectives, and circumstances.
The Multimedia Arts program at Istituto Marangoni emphasizes audiovisual languages and the potential offered by new digital technologies, with a particular focus on virtual reality and video mapping, and is aimed at anyone interested in developing the skills necessary to express their own creativity and apply it to the art world as well as other fields, such as fashion.

About the university
In 1935, Milanese tailor Giulio Marangoni established Istituto, which by 1942 had evolved into the Scuola Professionale Artistica. While the school's focus was initially on educating pattern makers and seamstresses, it shifted to fashion design, product development, and marketing in the 1970s and 1980s.
The Istituto Marangoni is an exclusive fashion and design institute in Italy.
Milan, in Lombardy, is the institute's headquarters; it also has outposts in Florence, London, Paris, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Mumbai and Miami.
The university has partnerships with more than 4,500 global brands and businesses, giving students and alums access to a wealth of resources and opportunities. As a result of the school's close relationships with businesses on a worldwide and local scale, it is able to help current students and alums map out a career path that is tailored to their specific interests and aspirations within the fields of management and business.
Istituto Marangoni's Italia campuses teaches all of the Institute's core curricula:
- Fashion Courses
- Design Courses
- Art courses
Career services help students connect with possible employers, make business connections, and get internship experience.
By the time they graduate, practically all students have designed multiple collections for the Milan Fashion Show. Students visit profile displays, trading floors, presentations, and podium demonstrations as part of the curriculum.
