Digital arts degrees may include classes about digital photography, animation, music, graphic design or other interactive forms of media. Students will learn both the fundamentals of the artistic process and the basics of the technology needed to create the art.
Students typically create multimedia presentations and collaborate with other artists within the program, building digital portfolios in their field in order to showcase the work they have completed throughout their studies. For example, they may work with professors and other students to create interactive art for public display. Digital arts students learn the latest technology and software programs in addition to giving and receiving feedback on their artistic work from peers and teachers.
