The Graduate Certificate in Digital Arts is an entry level graduate program aimed at students who wish to study digital arts in the areas of video, animation, compositing, internet art, processing, sound or hybrid practice: a specialization in Visual Effects is also available. Entry is open to students who have completed an approved program in a visual arts area and who wish to further their studies.  Alternately, it provides an entry point for students with a non-cognate degree wanting to develop expertise in an arts related area. It provides a basis for a career as a practicing digital artist or employment in an arts or media related area, or it prepares students for further graduate study.  Students wishing to study at Masters level can articulate into the Master of Digital Arts on successful completion of the certificate, with concurrent conditional entry to the MDigA possible.

The Certificate provides an introduction to digital arts practice-based methodologies through a combination of both theoretical and practical instruction.  Students are encouraged to apply course material to their own research/practice interests and to develop an understanding of the relationship of their own practice to practice in the field more generally.

Prerequisites

Appropriate level skills and either: a non-cognate three year Bachelor degree; or a cognate two year Diploma with two years relevant professional practice; or four years of relevant professional practice.
