The Digital Media (DIGM) program inspires students to explore beyond conventional boundaries and discover new possibilities in digital media and cutting-edge technologies. During the two-year MS program, DIGM students blend research with practical skills for modern media applications. The curriculum combines academic studies with hands-on projects in advanced digital design, covering 3D modeling, animation, interactive systems, game development, UX design, AR/VR, and the history, theory, and methodologies of digital media.
As students progress, they enhance these skills while gaining critical insights into the evolution of digital media industries and emerging technologies. This enables them to apply their expertise and anticipate future trends, preparing them for professional roles or entrepreneurial ventures. The program empowers students to broaden their horizons in gaming, animation, VR/AR, and immersive media. Beyond the MS degree, DIGM also provides a PhD pathway for those seeking to deepen their scholarly expertise and apply interdisciplinary research to digital media challenges. This is a STEM-certified program.
