2 Years On Campus Masters Program
University of Texas DallasThe Master of Arts in Arts, Technology, and Emerging Communication (ATEC) degree program cultivates creative practitioners, scholars, and interdisciplinary researchers and is designed for students who wish to pursue advanced study of technology and media or take an initial step toward a PhD in related fields.
Taught by internationally recognized faculty in the Harry W. Bass Jr. School of Arts, Humanities, and Technology, students learn foundational theories and methodologies that underpin technology and media studies and develop an in-depth understanding of contemporary debates in these fields. Throughout their coursework — and as students develop research questions and work on their theses — they benefit from faculty members’ wide-ranging expertise in fields such as global media studies, feminist media studies, critical play studies, games and learning, cultural studies of media, digital health humanities, disability media studies, digital journalism, remix studies, public humanities, science and technology studies, art + science, and animation studies. The program is designed both for individuals engaged in professional practice who wish to enhance their knowledge and skills and for full-time students intending to pursue a doctorate in a related field.
