| What it is | This program teaches you how to create digital content across animation, game design, and visual media. Unlike a pure computer science degree, it balances technical skills with creative and design thinking. It suits people who want to build things that people see and interact with, rather than work mainly on backend systems or theory. | You study drama, fine art, and music together, exploring creative expression across all three disciplines rather than choosing one. This program combines artistic training with a focus on how creative practices can support mental health and wellbeing in communities. It suits people who want to make art their path but also care about its impact on people and society. | This program combines studio art, architectural design, and materials science to explore how buildings and spaces are created and experienced. You'll study drawing, design principles, and the physical properties of construction materials alongside art history and theory. It suits students who want to work creatively with built environments — whether designing buildings, creating installations, or working in architectural practice — rather than pursuing fine art or architecture alone. |
