Overview

The Departments of Art, Art History & Visual Studies and Computer Science sponsor an interdepartmental major and minor in Computational Media. The interdepartmental major is designed for students who want to combine deep theoretical and critical engagement with art, computation, and culture with substantive engagement with core computer science concepts and principles, undertaken alongside hands-on experience with computational media practice. Students interested in areas such as digital humanities, digital media and algorithmic arts, computer interface and experience design, game studies, digital storytelling and data journalism, information aesthetics, computational media ethics, global media studies and related topics will find the program of interest. The major also encourages participation in collaborative, interdisciplinary projects through the required Technical Project Experience, which may be fulfilled through coursework or participation in a variety of related programs such as Data+, Story+, Bass Connections, Code+, CS+ or another approved project experience.
