In September 2013 at University ITMO the training on the master's program «Multimedia technology in the arts of theater, film and television» started. The program was developed and implemented by University ITMO in conjunction with the St. Petersburg State Theatre Arts Academy.

Scientific work and practice of the new master’s program takes place at the Theatre and Education Center Aleksandrinsky Theater, equipped with the most modern technology of stage work. Students of University ITMO and the STAA (graduate program «Theater Arts») formed four creative teams. Each semester they will set the performances on the new stage of Aleksandrinsky Theater using the full range of multimedia and Internet technologies.
