Areas of interest in the program include interaction design, physical computing, immersive environments, and experimental sound. Teaching emphasizes non-traditional applications of digital technologies while also developing awareness of the cultural and political implications of new technologies in networked and information societies.

The core curriculum incorporates conceptual and technical aspects of dynamic imagery, sound, and virtual dimension. The Computation Arts programs facilitate a hybrid learning environment for the integration of fine arts and computer science. All applicants must submit a portfolio of their own work, as well as a letter of intent, as part of the admission process.įor more information concerning these additional requirements and submission deadline dates, please visit the following website:Ĭoncordia.ca/finearts/future-students/applying-undergraduate. In addition to the normal admission procedure of Concordia University, there is a distinct admission procedure for applicants to the Major in Design.

§24 for specific details concerning the program. The academic content of the C.Edge option is identical to the regular program with some specific recommendations for courses designed to improve and enhance the student’s quality of work performance. The C.Edge option is available to selected students who are enrolled in the BFA program in Design. Students are responsible for fulfilling their particular degree requirements hence, the following sequence must be read in conjunction withĦ Chosen from ARTH ARTT or other Fine Arts history- or theory-based coursesĩ Chosen from any Fine Arts electives (including Computation Arts) In a collaborative and shared environment, students participate in diverse local outreach and community initiatives. The curriculum engages the student in creative work with the understanding of the impact and consequence of their designs in everyday life. Students begin their studies by developing knowledge and technical skill sets across these areas and then specialize according to their interests and abilities. Its overarching principle is socio-cultural, environmental, and economic sustainability. The program encourages critical thinking and takes an interdisciplinary approach to design theory and practice. The Major in Design program explores the principal areas of visual communication and the built environment. Students are encouraged to take courses across Design and Computation Arts. The Internet as a system for communication in information and networked societies serves as the intersection that strongly links the disciplines of Design and Computation Arts. The Computation Arts programs are concentrated within the digital and virtual environments where computer technology is embedded in all stages of the creative process and production. Digital technologies are integrated into the creative process to serve as strategies and tools for enhanced communication, application, representation, and dissemination. The Design Major is located primarily within the disciplines of image, object-making, and screen-based media in design practice with an emphasis on the study of material culture. The Department offers programs that examine the broad vision or culture of design within contemporary society.
