Description
Communications & New Media Studies is a multimedia program that prepares students for careers as media producers. Media producers create designed solutions through the integration of design technologies and fine art. They design and develop websites, produce and edit video and audio, create a variety of 2D and 3D animation projects, and design and develop applications for web and smart devices and a wide array of printed products. This is a hands-on program providing students with access to industry-standard software and gear through work in state-of-the-art labs.
The program provides students with a strong foundation in web, video/audio and print media. Once the fundamental courses have been completed, students can choose to specialize by selecting from a flexible menu of advanced curriculum options including digital imaging, design and illustration, video and audio production, animation or website production. Students in the program can transfer to a baccalaureate program in visual communication or art. The program is designed to prepare students for entry-level employment in graphics and production.
