The Master of Arts in Experimental Digital Media (MA-XDM) is dedicated to exploring the creative and critical processes provided by digital media. The XDM program emphasizes a lab-based, hands-on approach to digital technology. Students in the program learn to use digital media as a critical tool, combining theory and practice in the production of objects-to-think-with. The program's rich mix of theoretical and practical study prepares graduates for a variety of careers in media industries, as well as in digital/social media positions within more traditional fieldsprivate industry, government, educational organizations, and non-governmental organizations. Other students go on to doctoral programs, taking the creative methods and theories of the XDM program with them to craft innovative PhD projects. <br>Experimental Digital Media (XDM) is an MA degree offered by the University of Waterloo's Department of English Language and Literature, which is committed to critical thinking, laser-sharp communication, and creative experimentation. Waterloo English is a uniquely interdisciplinary department, offering courses and degrees in literature, rhetoric and communication, and digital studies. XDM students spend most of their time working at the Critical Media Lab, a collection of labs and studios surrounded by Kitchener-Waterloo's burgeoning tech culture.
