Technology, Arts & Media Program Description:
The ever-expanding landscape of the networked age requires new and adaptable skill-sets, within both academic and commercial paradigms. In order to address this need, the Technology, Arts and Media Program, based within the ATLAS Institute offers two undergraduate programs: a Minor in Technology, Arts and Media (MTAM) and a smaller Certificate in Digital Media (CDM). The Minor is intended for students who wish to pursue careers and research related to digital media, whereas the Certificate is intended for students who are interested in the fundamentals of digital media production.
Program Options
Certificate in Digital Media (CDM)The Certificate in Digital Media (CDM) provides basic understanding of the
interaction of information and communication technology (ICT) and society, basic digital literacy skills, and motivate them to think critically about ICT and its impacts upon society. CDM is an option for students that either do not have the time required to complete MTAM or for students that were not accepted into MTAM.
Minor in Technology, Arts & Media (MTAM)
The Minor in Technology, Arts and Media (MTAM) provides a broad multidisciplinary perspective that integrates technological skills with a critical, theoretical, and historical understanding of technology, media and the arts. The MTAM curriculum includes creative production courses, as well as classes that impart foundational knowledge and critical perspectives on the role of technology in society. Students from a wide range of majors receive instruction in digital media production, design, art criticism, computer programming, information technology, media and societal analysis, and project development. Many students use the program to prepare for careers in information technologies, media production, and the arts.
