You can specialize in Digital Media Development, Digital Media Arts or Digital Media Game Arts and focus on the study of 3D environments, artistic theories and cultural impact. Learn how to use programming as a tool for creative expression and develop digital objects and experiences like mobile apps, gaming technology and immersive VR/AR experiences. 


What You'll Learn 

Go from creative to creator. As a Digital Media student, you will learn about the raw tools that help create digital imagery and sound, including animation and 3D simulations. You will also study larger concepts like artistic theories and the cultural impact of digital media on the world. Most importantly, you will learn to simulate, build, and create.


You will begin the program by completing a common core of courses in your first year. Then, you will select from one of three specializations based on your interest: Digital Media Development (DMD) focusing on design of core tools and technologies for digital media practices; Digital Media Arts (DMA), focusing on the creation and application of digital media for creative production in the visual, performing and screen arts; and Digital Media Game Arts (DMGA, focusing on allied artistic and scientific aspects of innovative game design.
