What it isThis program teaches you how to design and produce printed materials and publications, from traditional printmaking techniques like etching and screen printing to digital design and book production. Unlike a general fine arts program, it focuses specifically on the skills and technologies involved in creating work for print and publication. It suits people who want to combine visual creativity with the technical craft of making things people can hold and read.You study computer science and design together in a hands-on, project-based way rather than as separate subjects. The program emphasizes learning through real problems and experimentation, so you'll build working projects alongside traditional coursework. This suits people who want to understand how technology and design connect and prefer learning by doing.You study the creative and business sides of art, film, design, and performance. This program combines hands-on work in fields like photography, animation, drama, and dance with classes in marketing and media studies, so you're not just making art — you're learning how to manage projects and reach audiences. It suits people who want careers in creative industries but also need to understand budgets, promotion, and how to run cultural organizations.
