Communication Arts
Essentially our program is based upon the convergence of media. Unlike other programs we do not separate components into different majors. Our students start with a strong foundation in writing, art, digital design, and film and video. From there they build upon these to tools and combine them with practical experience to achieve their goal in their chosen field.
The structure of the major is divided into 4 main areas: writing, film and video, art and design, and digital media. Students within the major take several courses from each of the area until their last semesters. These areas converge into in depth courses focusing on digital media with the purpose of refining knowledge and skills preparing students for post graduation experiences.
