The Virtual Modeling and Design degree develops a student's ability to tell animated stories through a series of digital sequences. By pairing art and technology, the Virtual Modeling and Design degree immerses students in the conceptualization, planning and production of completed Virtual Modeling and Design projects. Through methodologies such as group learning and hands-on experience, students will learn traditional art skills, 3D modeling, animation, character animation, lighting, texturing and special effects. Students can choose specialized classes in the technological tools behind animation, as well as the concepts of art, movement and art production.

This program also offers further exposure to storyboarding, scriptwriting, drawing, acting, filmmaking concepts and cinematography. Virtual Modeling and Design students graduate from the University with valuable skills in team building, project management and communication. Students will be prepared to work in game development, feature film production, broadcast television, advertising and similar industries that require digital visualization.
