PRODUCED AND PRESENTED BY
The two-year Associate Degree in Film and Digital Media Arts teaches technical “hands-on” skills and how to develop an entrepreneurial mindset. Students emerge from the program with the training necessary to work in the media industry and produce their own original content. Students graduate from the program with a capstone project in their reel and skills to launch a media career.
For motivated, career-driven students, we offer a Film Technician Certificate program. This degree articulates with the Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and Digital Media Arts at UNM Main campus. Students should consult with an advisor prior to enrollment.
