Bachelor of Fine Arts: New Media Art

The New Media Art emphasis is designed for students who want to explore areas such as electronic art, robotic art, installation or experimental video and film. New Media Art utilizes the elements of time with a strong intersection of technology and media that often involve interactivity and exploration of cultural concepts. The curriculum includes working at the frontiers of art, science, and technology, through hands-on learning techniques with critical and creative thinking skills to understand the contemporary world. New Media Art will prepare students for graduate school, for contemporary art practice as an independent artist and for careers in the creative technological fields such as film, videography, computing, or installation/exhibition design.
