    Entertainment Technology and Design

    About

    The Entertainment Engineering and Design program provides two academic paths for students who are interested in pursuing the interdisciplinary fusion of engineering and the fine arts that will allow them to succeed in the entertainment industry. The Entertainment Technology & Design degree spans the disciplines of automation, structural design and rigging, entertainment venue design and entertainment sound design. This degree option requires 127 credit hours, including 30 credits associated with the university's General Education Core.

    Entertainment Technology & Design is the creative application of scientific and mathematical principles to the design, manufacture, and construction of structures, machines, processes, and live systems. This degree program focuses on preparing students for a discipline that creates the highly technical designs that the entertainment industry has come to demand. Entertainment technology and design involves the application of traditional engineering disciplines including computer science, computer engineering, construction management and the fusion of electrical and mechanical systems to the art of entertainment.
