The arts and technology have a long history of mutually productive interaction. Technological advances create new opportunities and audiences for artistic expression. The imaginative visions of art, in turn, invite translation into objects that transform society.

The interdisciplinary program in Arts and Technology is devoted to studying and fostering this interaction, with specific emphasis on the interplay of visual art, music, video, and narrative with the new media that have emerged from the convergence of computing and media technologies.
The objective of the Arts & Technology Program is to prepare students generally to understand and succeed in the media-rich, technologically sophisticated world of the 21st century. The core knowledge in this program draws from the convergence of research in the humanities, the creative and performing arts, visual communications design, computer science, and engineering.

Students will be prepared for a wide range of current and future, as yet uninvented, careers that demand the ability to fuse visual images, verbal communication, creative thinking, and technological expertise.
