Digital Media Degree

Mastering the Art of Digital Design

Digital Media is a multifaceted, interdisciplinary program that provides for the aesthetic, critical and technical perspectives vital for professional careers in contemporary art and design practice. A diverse curriculum is presented, emphasizing aesthetic sensibility, programming literacy, creative expression and technical problem solving across a broad range of digital and physical forms of media communication. Starting with a solid foundation in traditional and digital arts, design, computer programming and interactivity, the program promotes the creation of innovative works that transform the way we communicate. Fostering experimentation, students will explore directions in visual communication design, interface and web design, augmented reality, and responsive and interactive experiences.
