In the media arts and sciences minor, you enhance your program of study through integrated, interdisciplinary training in creative processes and technical skills in new media with cultural applications. You develop both the technical skills to create computational media and the cultural skills to know when or why to apply them. You learn to create computational media (computation combined with objects, sound, video, time, space, culture and bodies); breathe behavior into media, objects or systems by programming; and think critically about how computation impacts lives and how culture makes a difference in the ways that people experience computational media --- a critical skill in this dynamic age. The GAME School educates the next generation of learners, empowering you with technofluency --- its development, application and implications. You are prepared to be a socially aware, critically thinking global citizen who strives to bring about positive change in a society that's increasingly shaped by new technologies.
