State College officials have announced the launch of a new bachelor of science
degree in digital media and animation this fall following the recent approval
of the program by the State University of New York.

The degree is an extension of the college's
rapidly growing associate degree program in computer art and design. The new program
will equip graduates with a skill set necessary to excel in today's computer
art and animation fields. Students enrolled in the program will have access to
new Mac and PC labs with state-of-the-art digital equipment in addition to
accomplished, hands-on faculty.聽

The addition of the digital media and
animation bachelor of science degree program adds a new dimension to our
program offerings at 魅影直播.聽 Now our students in the associate degree
curriculum no longer need to look to outside transfer institutions for an
opportunity to continue their education in the exciting world of digital
animation.聽 Two-year graduates from other colleges will also be welcome to
transfer into our program to pursue a bachelor of science degree.聽 Graduates will have doors opened for advanced
entry-level positions in the computer animation and special effects fields as
well as the video gaming industry.

Students will receive instruction in the
traditional arts to enhance their artistic creativity. They will also learn
industry-standard software applications and gain proficiency in computer
graphics-related technology.聽 Along with
expanding facilities and faculty, the college has welcomed its first junior
class this fall with an expected graduation date of May 2009.
