&lt;p&gt;This degree combines classes from communication, art, music, computer science and other academic areas, and it also provides the in-depth technical education today&amp;rsquo;s media jobs require.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This versatile degree will prepare you to take on a number of roles including multimedia producer, game developer, &lt;span&gt;usability engineer&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span&gt;motion graphics artist, interface designer, 3D artist and animator, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;and mobile app developer&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s more, is that concepts and skills learned in media arts and game development can apply to everyday life &amp;mdash; and a variety of career paths.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Over the next decade, U.S. jobs in media arts and game design are expected to grow across the board, including a 17% increase for software developers and testers, 8% for web developers and digital designers, 4% for special effects artists and animators, and 2% for graphic designers.&lt;/p&gt;</BodyCopy>
