One Vision, Two Campuses
The UConn Digital Media & Design department offers four-year undergraduate degrees at both the Storrs (main UConn campus) and Stamford campuses. Residential housing is now offered at Stamford, a growing campus located just 45-minutes from NYC, in close proximity to industry.
Whichever campus you choose, the Digital Media & Design community is filled with bright and ambitious students and dedicated faculty. With our commitment to the humanities, we encourage students to find and express their voice, building from their unique background and perspective. We acknowledge that a diversity of thought and expression is needed in today’s society and see great promise in our DMD students’ ability to make a difference in the world as future digital media content creators, distributors, and analyzers. We invite you to join the DMD family!
