The Animation programmes combine the classical camera-based techniques with modern high-tech computer imaging methods. The programmes are designed to allow students the opportunity to understand and exploit their individual abilities within the subject, creating a sound working methodology from which they can acquire relevant professional skills. The Masters Programme in Animation has been designed to accommodate both traditional and contemporary practices extending students’ critical, creative and professional skills. While the most internationally defined understanding of the subject is one of storytelling, the development of 3D technologies allows a much broader interpretation. Students enter the programme from a variety of backgrounds, from undergraduate programmes in animation,


interior design, medical imaging, applied computing, product design, architecture and time-based media, as well as those returning from industry to focus on developing their personal practice.


Over three semesters a varied, yet complementary, series of modules cover areas of creative and professional practice, ranging from the application of contemporary technologies to production and post-production. The programme offers the opportunity for animators to develop an informed creative approach to applying their skills in 2D traditional and 3D computer animation through the execution of their own projects. The Masters programme in Animation will provide students with animation experience to prepare for careers in the Animation, Computing, Visual Effects, Interactive and Visualisation industries.


The MSc Media Arts & Communication covers a broad range of expressive opportunities such as performance, video arts, film, sonic art practice and communication design. The programme embraces the changing cultures and applications for media and communication, exploring its market and aesthetics through combined research and production.


The Centre for Digital Imaging is a fully integrated area of specialist expertise within the DJCAD. The Centre supports the development of 3D animation and visualisation across a growing range of courses across the College and the University of Dundee.
