Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Majors & Programs

In any interactive media field, from web applications to interactive installations, or from video games to algorithmic art, programming is the discipline that, simply put, makes it all work.

Whether coding something from nothing, or manipulating a sophisticated authoring tool, programming-related technical skills are necessary to bring an interactive creation to life. Students in each of the applied programming degrees take a wide variety of engaging courses that help them develop a deep understanding of the aesthetics, tools, skills, process, and interactive theory that informs their work and encourages them to develop and produce new and original ideas. The Interactive Arts and Media department offers three different applied programming degrees, each tailored to a different flavor of interactive media.

Graduates with a degree in Mobile Media Programming become creative coders competent in applying interactive principles and theories to mobile and web development. They learn to think and act as innovators, adept at using a variety of technologies and processes to express ideas and solve web and mobile media design problems. Graduates in this major will display high-level proficiency in understanding and applying the principles of user-centered theory and workflow to the creation of interactive applications and mobile media.
