General information

The Dual Degree in Fine Arts and Design from the University of La Laguna arises in response to the need to develop hybrid professional profiles, capable of integrating the expressive and conceptual skills of contemporary art with the design, functional, and technological skills of design.

This dual degree responds to a context in which the cultural and creative industries—particularly those linked to image, animation, visual communication, and graphic and digital design—demand professionals with transversal, versatile, and specialized training. Sectors such as editorial and advertising illustration, 2D and 3D animation, graphic and audiovisual design, video games, interactive communication, and digital experience design (UI/UX) require professionals who master both artistic languages and the technical and strategic tools of design.

The entry profile for those wishing to begin studies in this double degree in the field of fine arts and design corresponds to individuals with basic knowledge of art, design, and culture in their diverse manifestations, both historical and contemporary. It is especially aimed at those with a sensitivity and curiosity toward current cultural expressions, as well as an interest in understanding, interpreting, and creating within these disciplinary fields.

Students must demonstrate personal aptitudes and attitudes such as the ability to express themselves correctly, both orally and in writing, as well as basic skills in handling tools, plastic materials, and icons. They are expected to have a willingness to learn independently, make independent decisions, and be critically and receptive to observations and suggestions.

Likewise, it is important to have a sensitivity toward the visual arts and design, acceptance and respect for cultural diversity, a willingness to work in a team, perseverance, self-imposed demands, and the ability to plan and adapt to cultural, technical, and technological changes. Familiarity with using the internet as a source of documentation and information exchange is also valued, as is a willingness to creatively and independently solve the challenges posed by training, including an interest in learning several languages.

The Double Degree in Fine Arts and Design provides a broad and versatile education that enables students to access a diverse range of career opportunities in the fields of visual creation, design, and the cultural and creative industries.

The synergy between both degrees allows for the development of versatile profiles, capable of tackling both artistic and expressive projects and functional, strategic, and communicative design assignments. This preparation is especially valuable in the current context, characterized by the interconnectedness of art, technology, communication, and digital media.

Among the main career opportunities offered by this program are: Illustration and visual narrative: editorial, scientific, children's, advertising, and institutional illustration, both in print and digital media.

  • Animation and audiovisual production: development of 2D and 3D animation projects, concept art, storyboarding, character and set design for film, television, video games, and new platforms.
  • Graphic design and visual communication: editorial design, corporate visual identity, advertising design, branding, posters, and signage.
  • Digital and interactive design: web design, user interface design (UI) and user experience (UX), multimedia, and content for social media and digital platforms.
  • Art direction: in advertising agencies, audiovisual production companies, media outlets, cultural events, or multimedia projects.
  • Teaching and cultural mediation: in artistic teaching, non-formal education, cultural centers, and museums, including training, outreach, and management tasks.
  • Management and production of cultural projects: development of exhibitions, publishing projects, fairs, festivals, and design or illustration events.
  • Entrepreneurship and creation of your own studio: development of your own or cooperative business initiatives in the fields of art, illustration, design, or animation.
