Concurrently, professional studio workshops in 3D modeling, animation, multimedia interactivity, and visual effects provide hands-on instruction and practical application of concepts. The popular program offers a 4-year B.S. degree, a 2-year M.S. degree and a certificate program, available to those holding a baccalaureate degree and seeking special skills in digital media.
