Bachelor of Arts in Digital Media Arts

Valpo's digital media courses focus on visual communication and creative thinking and help students learn to apply those skills across a variety of computer-assisted media. The program also exposes students to professional-level software used for graphic design, photography, animation, video editing, and related fields.

The degree program culminates in the senior thesis, an intense, project-driven learning experience. Students design and present their project proposals in the fall and execute the projects throughout the spring semester with supervision from the art faculty. The final works are exhibited at the end of the semester.

The degree prepares students for work in graphic design and other visual communications fields and can also qualify them for further study at the graduate level. All students are required to complete a relevant internship to their discipline.

B.A. students in art at Valpo must complete the general education requirements for the B.A. This University-wide core strengthens communication and critical thinking skills while introducing global cultures and traditions.
