Bachelor [Animation and Game Arts] From University of Massachusetts

Students will concentrate on digital animation and interactive multimedia while exploring 2- and 3-dimensional design, web design, and virtual reality. As they explore the potential of various digital media technologies, they will engage in consistent, hands-on experimentation, working with faculty members who have considerable expertise in the field.

Your BFA degree in Animation and Game Arts will prepare students to meet the design and communications challenges of the 21st century with careers in areas such as art direction, advertising, animation, broadcasting, creative direction, education, environmental design, game design, interface design, multimedia, scientific visualization, software application design, special effects, video editing, virtual reality and web design.

The BFA is a professional degree with concentrated areas of specialization, so students will take more art courses than they would in a BA program. At UMass Dartmouth, students also have the advantages of a university education where they can diversify their studies and expand their career opportunities.
