About Digital Media in Drexel University
As a natural extension of the Animation and Visual Effects, Game Design and Production, Interactive Digital Media, and Virtual Reality and Immersive Media undergraduate programs, both the Master of Science (MS) and PhD programs challenge students to push beyond what is known and into what is possible. Students who will excel are those who have graduated with significant skills in 3D modeling and animation, game design, or interactive digital media and could immediately find a job in user experience (UX) design, game design, virtual and augmented reality (AR/VR), or animation—but want more. Students will build upon those skills and develop a critical understanding of how the industry evolves so they can forecast the future and prepare employers for what’s coming. Students who excel are also scholars with significant knowledge in the field of digital media who want both to advance that knowledge and to apply it to research problems across disciplines. Students can expand their universe of possibilities in areas such as gaming, animation, virtual and augmented reality, or immersive media in general.
