The 2D Animation concentration prepares students for professional careers in the field of 2D animation, beginning with an introduction to basic animation fundamentals during their freshman year. In their sophomore year, students will apply these animation principles to more complex, narrative-driven projects.

 
As students progress into advanced classes, they will acquire experience across all facets of the animation pipeline, including storyboarding, character design, background illustration, compositing, and 2D character rigging.  

Students will create animations individually and as part of a team, helping them identify and advocate for the area of animation they are most passionate about while ultimately building a portfolio aimed at securing a career in their desired animation field upon graduation. 

The 3D Animation concentration provides a comprehensive exploration of the 3D animation production pipeline, starting with an in-depth introduction to fundamental techniques— including modeling, lighting and texturing, and animation- during the freshman and sophomore years.  

As students advance into their junior and senior years, the curriculum expands to reinforce and refine their core 3D production skills through collaborative and individual, portfolio-driven projects.  

Additionally, advanced coursework in specialized areas such as 3D sculpting, rigging, and compositing will be offered, equipping students with the technical expertise and creative problem-solving abilities necessary for professional practice in the field of digital animation. 

Enrollment for this program, set to launch in Fall 2026, will start in Fall 2025. Currently, the program is available only to first-time freshmen.
