Important Program Update
The Art major - Interactive Media Design concentration is transitioning to a Visual and Performing Arts major - Interactive Media Design concentration. Current students declared in the Art major may complete their degree as planned. Students wishing to enter the standalone Art major must start the program by January 11, 2027. After that date, all new students will be admitted to the Interactive Media Design concentration within the Visual and Performing Arts major.
At USI, Interactive Media Design encompasses the design of websites, games, motion graphics, and more. Interactive Media Designers are introduced to web page layout software and content management systems. Courses focus on designing the user interface, content organization and sequencing, and the integration of text and graphics. Students will build skills in web and multimedia design and have opportunities to design and create unique user experiences through a range of digital and computer-based interfaces. The interactive media design program has an academically rich foundation of design theory and history.
Additional credit hours could indicate a second major, minor, or certificate. A minimum of 120 credit hours is required to graduate.
