Welcome to the IAM department's section on Manifest!



In the Interactive Arts and Media Department students learn to create interactive art, media, and games that are innovative and compelling. They work with faculty who are accomplished professionals to achieve several goals: thinking critically, solving problems creatively, and developing an individual and imaginative voice in their work. Students study aesthetics, theory, technology, cultural and ethical issues in preparation for entering diverse and successful careers in interactive arts, multimedia, web design, interaction and interface design, and game design. We are currently working on many very interesting projects.

Below is a list of the students and projects that will be in the exhibit:
