Customer Experience programs aim to give students the necessary skills to optimize interactions with, and the value provided to, their or their clients' customers. In the Master in Customer Experience and Innovation, through rethinking the customer journey, students learn to create seamless, synchronized customer experiences across products, services and businesses.
We’ll take you from understanding the fundamentals to developing a deep knowledge of business, learning by practical application what CX actually means, how it works and how companies engage with it to create value. You’ll learn how to use the latest technology to improve the customer experience, by exploring data-driven innovation and trends. And you’ll also focus on human-centered design: how we account for human factors to create the right thing, the right way, for the right people.
The program is spread across three terms and will cover four pillars: Business, Technology, Human-Centered Design and INNOLABS. The 1st term— the Core Period—lasts three months and covers both the core subjects common to all MARCOM programs and specialized subjects. In the 2nd term, also lasting three months, you’ll start working on hands-on projects as well as deepening your understanding of the role of CX and innovation. In the 3rd term, lasting four months, you’ll focus on the technologies and methodologies of tomorrow. You will also undertake a social entrepreneurship project, which will allow you to apply the knowledge you have gained across three distinct focuses. The final project consists of hands-on Innovation Labs that constitute transversal skill building, allowing you to work in areas like the creative process, adaptive leadership, prototyping, design thinking, and insights.
