About our undergraduate program: The Design Media Arts undergraduate program emphasizes innovative creation with digital and mass media within the context of a public research university.

The program culminates with the senior projects classes where each student defines his/her own senior project based on individual interests within the areas of interactivity and
games, video and animation, and visual communication and image. This uniquely challenging and diverse program invites students to balance aesthetic sensibility with logical reasoning, formal theories with practical application, and contemporary thought with historical perspective. Most courses are taught as studios of no more than 22 students, which encourage individual growth and fosters a sense of community within
the department. Rather than focusing on narrow professional development, our curriculum fosters experimentation across a range of different media.
