Media Integration Studies Minor

What is Media Integration Studies?

The Media Integration Studies (MIS) Minor is an opportunity for interdisciplinary study in digital studios within three academic departments: Art, Mass Communication, and Music.

Projects and assignments emphasize various aspects of applied information technologies (IT) often termed multimedia. Instruction in the use of both hardware and software emphasizes the following areas: still digital image-making, digital photography, computer-based printing, digital audio recording and editing, MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface), digital animation, and digital videography and editing.

Additional courses for the MIS minor are offered by the departments of English, Philosophy, and Sociology and Criminal Justice.

Students involved in the MIS minor thus have the opportunity to study, across six academic departments, both the practice of mulltimedia as well as the effects of such media on the individual, on society, and in the arts.
