ST. PAUL Manila University will soon offer a doctoral degree in Communication Design and Social Innovation Program.

The university said that the new program is anchored on the understanding of communication theories through the lens of philosophical and ethical discourse and covers the principles governing effective knowledge management in the age of digital communication.

“Embedded in this program is gamification,” it added.

“Students must apply gamification principles to enhance community engagement and intensify participation in the design of community-oriented technologies and products,” the school said.

It said that students must propose, apply, and test innovative solutions to real community problems at the end of the program.
