The Bachelor of Media and Creative Technologies (BMCT) is a cross-disciplinary degree that explores the impact of creative technologies in arts and media in the 21st century. With a particular focus on online audio and video, portable devices, networking and an on-demand culture, the degree examines how we have transformed today's creative environment, and how this promises more innovative ways to create and share content in future.

The BMCT has interconnections with other departments, including Music, Dance (Sport & Leisure Studies), Māori Performing and Creative Arts and Computer Science/Graphic Design. The combination promises the development of skills in a variety of contemporary mediated creative practices, and a thorough conceptual and critical understanding of their cultural impact.
