New Curriculum for Interactive Media Design

This just goes to show you that the world of Web design and functionality is becoming a bigger and more important role around the world than most might think. It is nice to see schools and universities catching up with us in the current times we are living in. Well that, and it makes me wish I lived in California.

In fact I did want to go to an art school for this very reason. Only problem was time and money played against me.

The new curriculum in “Interactive Media Design” will arm students with skills needed to enter the interactive graphics, digital marketing and Web development industries. The program is offered at both the Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science levels.

The school previously offered the program as Multimedia & Web Design, but the new curriculum features a variety of new or revised courses. More courses have been added on the design side, such as digital typography and design layout, based on input from employers in the interactive industry.

The curriculum also takes a deeper look at various kinds of Web sites through classes focusing solely on educational, entertainment and multi-user site development.
