Digital Arts Minor
The Digital Arts minor provides a media-focused course of creative study in digital arts to complement several majors at Elon. Concentrated course-work in this medium aids in providing students with visual literacy and a critical engagement with technology–skills and experiences that enable students to become effective global citizens in a visually saturated and technology-centered world.
Students may not minor in Digital Arts if they are a declared Art major.
