The Bachelor of Arts in Art, Media, and Design major offers students an engaged, creative and professional approach to arts at the intersection of traditional art practices and digital media. This major has two options, Art and Visual Culture (AVC) and Digital and Media Arts (DAMA) comprising synergistic studio and theory courses in media design, film and video, drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, installation art and photography.
