Curriculum

Learning That Pushes Boundaries

Digital Media Design provides interdisciplinary practices in art and design, moving image and interactive design. Our courses and projects value individual perspective development, critiques, visual literacy, digital media fluency, experiential learning and innovation. Students make meaningful and notable contributions in the industry with these comprehensive learnings.

First-year coursework introduces fundamental theories, methodologies and skills central to art and design. Students explore design thinking and processes that engage research, contexts, audiences, visual art, technology, experimentation and play in the construction of meaningful visual forms.

Interactive Design & Moving Images

Second-year courses focus on developing students’ sensibilities to define and design connected interactive experiences between people and technology. Students will be able to apply contemporary practices in creativity and technology resulting in the production of 2D and 3D digital motion arts as well as meaningful interactive designs.
