Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Computer Science - Entertainment Arts and Engineering] From University of Utah

The School of Computing offers a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in software-oriented Computer Science (CS), a specialization of that degree with an emphasis on Entertainment Arts and Engineering (EAE), a Bachelor of Science degree in hardware-oriented Computer Engineering (CE), jointly offered with Utah’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and a five year program leading to combined Bachelor and Masters degrees (BS/MS) in Computer Science.

This degree is offered jointly with the College of Fine Arts. A key characteristic of the program is its interdisciplinary nature. As the digital entertainment industry continues to grow, employers are focusing more on students who understand both sides of the industry, whether it is computer science students with additional fine arts skills or fine arts students with computing skills. The EAE specialization offers cutting edge courses designed for undergraduate students interested in pursuing careers in the digital entertainment industry, and expressing themselves using digital media, including courses covering video game design and development, 3D animation, and computer-generated special effects.
