MFA Program Overview
This internationally recognized program offers concentrations in interaction design, motion graphics, 3D modeling, game art and design, web and mobile UI design, and visualization. The curriculum combines knowledge of design theory, methodology and aesthetics with skills in 2D and 3D computer graphics, interactive techniques and interfaces. Students utilize cutting edge technology to produce a vast array of dynamic experiences.
The program focuses on experimental and practical approaches to the expression of unique visions. Students create interactive experiences for the web and mobile devices, installations, kiosks for museums, opening titles for movies, interactive motion comics, virtual theatre, and computer games realized from their imaginations.
BFA Program Overview
The BFA in 3D Digital Graphics prepares students to use three-dimensional computer graphics in computer and video games, medical and scientific simulations, data visualization, models for architects and engineers, motion or broadcast graphics, instructional media, accident reconstruction, and more.
The major curriculum consists of three courses in the freshman year that incorporate traditional design skills and principles of time, motion, and light while using 3D software. Intermediate courses allow students to develop expertise in an area of their interest. Upper level courses include a junior project and a senior thesis. General studies and electives support the major and might include art history, communication, interactive storytelling, film criticism, computer science, or information technology.
