There are many strong points to our program. Among them are strong faculty and student interactions. It is not unusual as you pass through the building and see faculty talking with students in offices or just chatting in the hall. Faculty are genuinely interested in what students are doing and their progress toward graduation.

We also have excellent facilities. We have a dedicated building that was recently renovated. 计算机实验室, equipment storage and checkout, 教室, 教师办公室, 工作室, and study space are all in the same building. This close proximity for all the programs resources has improved the already strong connection between students and faculty.

Finally, we make sure that your educational experience transcends the classroom. Many of our classes have projects that involved the campus or local community. Students tend to take multiple video and audio workshops to polish their skills and build demonstration materials. You can also take advantage of Studies Abroad. Just this past year students completed an award winning documentary shot in Ireland as the main project for one of these classes.

In your senior year you will take our senior seminar in which you will prepare your resume and portfolio materials and practice interviewing and presentation skills to prepare you for your career search.

How do we know we are successful? 看看我们的校友就知道了. We have a strong placement rate and our alumni stay in contact with us.
