Summary of the Profile
Objective(s) of a study programme:
Multimedia technology study programme is meant for preparing informatics engineers who will have full comprehension of computer systems, internet technologies, video and sound formation, transference and storage, space modelling, visualization and animation, fundamentals of web engineering and web system development and management tools, fundamentals and rules of sound, video and interactive audio-visual information content development, ability to project, install, professionally employ and enhance sound and video, interactive media system technical and software equipment, ability to organise and manage production of multimedia products, manage work in various advertisement and marketing, telecommunication companies, publishing, tourism, sales, education, electronic publishing company or institution information technology departments and develop activity related to this field.
Learning outcomes:
The competencies of Multimedia technology study programme’s graduates:
Will be able to plan and analyse multimedia engineering (technology) professional activity, adjust activity while regarding activity result analysis and specialist recommendations, to perform adequate project activity;
Will be able to manage and adapt informatics engineering, image, sound and multimedia technologies, search, store, structure and analyse information required for performing professional activity, perform activity tasks, assess social and ethical problems;
Will be able ds in a particular occupational field, evaluate constant alteration; to implement standard decisions in a known or new environment;
Will be able to employ theoretical and practical knowledge of informatics engineering, image, sound and multimedia while making decisions; by soaking up new technologies;
Will be able to design computer systems, install, adjust and update hardware and software equipment, prepare and implement multimedia product projects; act independently and by collaborating with required field specialists;
Will be able to think analytically, to solve problems, will have abilities of entrepreneurship, learning aptitude.
Activities of teaching and learning:
The study forms usually used for knowledge conveyance and the education of abilities are lectures, workshops and seminars, etc. Various methods are used: theoretical lecture, case study (task modelling), design, situation analysis and interpretation, task solving, research interviews, individual research, etc. Research and special full skills are formed organising practical and laboratory works. In order to implement these learning aims, the following study methods are used: group and individual work, debates, discussions, project work, creative tasks, etc. Using such forms and methods of studies, not only practical full skills, but also communicational, individual independent learning, pursuing to improve continuously in professional area full skills are formed.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
A cummulative asessment of learning outcomes in scores is applied. Students shall accumulate at least 40 % of their final assessment before a particular exam or differentiated credit, they shall have at least 2-3 marks. Assessment criteria are introduced to students during the introductory lecture of every study subject. The assessment of subjects is performed using the following formulas:
The assessment of a differentiated credit shall consist of a derivative cumulative assessment score (tests, control works, etc.), which shall be derived in the last lecture using the assessment formula presented by the collage of higher education teacher in the module card.
Exam assessment (recommended formula; upon the consent of the Study Quality Supervision Committee, the assessment formula may be amended): V=0,4CA+0,6E; CA – cumulative assessment (tests, control works, etc.), E – exam score.
Assessment of the report on practice: the final assessment score of students’ practices consists of the assessment by the practice advisor, the assessment of the report on practice and the score for the defence of the practice.

Specialisations:
Optional courses:
The study programme has the option of choosing 2 alternatives from main collegial study subjects, one subject from the field of social sciences and another one from the field of specific courses; in addition 5 % of study scope is reserved for student’s free choice. Optional subjects can be chosen from the overall optional subject list taught at the College but an opportunity is presented to choose subjects intended for improvement of studied course skills: Communication Psychology, Protection of Intellectual Property, Labour Law, Marketing Research, Support and Advertisement, Digital Photography, Computer Game Design, Creative Industries, Multimedia Projects etc.
Distinctive features of a study programme:
Distinctive features of Multimedia technology study programme implemented by the College are:
Study aims grounded on society and work market needs: meant to train IT engineer with competencies in video, audio and digital press technologies, with abilities to install and administer companies’ engineering, informational networks and manage multimedia product production and preparation.
Remarkable facilities ensuring formation of practical skills: multimedia technologies, photo/video, computer network, computer architecture laboratories and sound recording studio with the newest technical and software equipment.
Virtualization of study environment: virtual work places allow students to employ newest IT achievements, technical and software equipment not only in the College but also at home while studying independently.
Study environment satisfies the needs of handicapped students: computerized work places are implemented for physically handicapped students, virtualized work spaces allow to study in an individualized intensity.
In comparison to similar programmes implemented in the universities, in the collegial Multimedia technology study programme a greater attention is paid not to the programming but to the analysis of technical and technological tasks, their determination, solution and adaptation in different multimedia environments while focusing on practical activity.
In comparison to the collegial Multimedia technology study programmes which are implemented in Kaunas and Siauliai state Colleges, in the NLC study programme, engineering basics are provided in a broader perspective, a great facility for professional internship performance is prepared.
