The Diploma in Digital Media and Design is an employment-focused, multidisciplinary program that bridges the gaps between technological skills and foundational professional skills.   

Students gain the digital fluency and creativity needed to thrive in web, UI, and UX design positions. Design and technology-focused courses build the skills to create visual narratives, develop compelling digital content, work effectively with code, and apply generative artificial intelligence tools in their work. The program features curriculum that develops students’ essential skills as well as technological proficiency, enabling them to pursue further studies or evolve with the new global economy.  

In addition to primarily project-based coursework, a three-credit capstone course in second year provides an opportunity for students to showcase their employment skills and expertise in technology and innovation to future employers.
