The Digital Media Technologies program at ESU immerses students in the media business
and its creative technologies.
Students use today’s creative media technologies to learn how to tell stories and
prepare for dynamic media careers. ESU offers a very hands-on program that allows
students to experience many aspects of media, from video and TV production to web
design, photography, digital graphics, social and interactive media, and new courses
and content in esports and virtual reality.
The undergraduate programs provide our students with a wide range of production and
creative skills, in multiple subject areas to prepare them with hands on access to
the technology they need to become the professionals and leaders in creative media
industries.
These software packages are taught on both Windows and Apple computers. We prepare
our students to meet the challenges of tomorrow's media industries.
