Major: Interactive Design
Study in interactive design uses an interdisciplinary, hands-on approach to developing the key skills needed in this burgeoning field, which merges technical knowledge and creativity with a focus on the needs of audiences. Interactive designers make the ordinary into the extraordinary, bringing ideas to life and dazzling audiences with lifelike renderings through the creative application of storytelling technology.

The Interactive Design major will develop your digital design and production skills. You’ll learn to evaluate and design for contemporary online media platforms and services. You’ll analyse theories and technologies of contemporary web, digital, media and visual design; and you’ll effectively communicate content via practical media projects. You’ll also gain in-depth knowledge about the structure, ethics and dynamics of the digital design, media, visual media and entertainment industries.
