Integrated Multimedia

The Integrated Multimedia program is a broad-based view of what multimedia is; graphic arts, photography, journalism, theater, video, animation and music. We teach multimedia as a tool that everybody can use regardless of their discipline. Everyone needs to communicate and we have the most widely used, current software in business and graphic arts for people to utilize. Our lab imitates situations found in the workplace. We help our students build the working skills they need today and enhance their manner of communication so they can get better jobs and obtain more value for the employers they have right now.

Identify and choose the appropriate multimedia application for projects.
