This program trains entry-level professional designers who can work in the media-film-game industry, the modeling and simulation industry, and/or the educational technology industry. Graduates may also have employment opportunities flowing from the increased demand for 3-D Modeling and Simulation and Visualization in the Aerospace, Life-Bio-Health Science, Defense, Tourism and IT Security industries. Because the Gaming and Simulation work environment demands highly advanced skills, it is recommended that students consider this program as an entry point to continued higher education rather than as a terminal degree. Students should consider transfer plans with universities that offer Bachelors of Applied Science and/or Bachelors of Applied Technology Degrees.
