Objectives
This field allows you to combine a science sequence of courses in computer science, and mathematics and statistics with a selection of courses drawn from the arts and social sciences. Courses in mass communication, art and culture, psychology and sociology, and Technology, Society, Environment Studies are recommended. Career opportunities abound in areas such as communications, advertising, web applications, and computer-assisted design applications
