Discover the purpose, underlying principles and philosophies of the Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM) industry and how digital media technologies are transforming the profession as well as visitor experiences. 

Technology is used to manage collections, enhance the visitor experience and share work and experiences to broad and diverse audiences. Increasingly visits to large GLAM institutions are entirely virtual, from anywhere in the world, at any time. 

Throughout your studies, you’ll learn how digital media technologies can be harnessed to transform the visitor experience and provide access to GLAM institutions and collections in creative and technically innovative ways.
