Your coursework will provide you with a solid foundation in techniques and theory in one of the specialized tracks: Character Animation, Animation and Visualization, or Graphic Design.

Emerging Media graduates are employees at renowned Fortune 500, media, design and production companies across the nation. <em>The first two years of the degree are spent as an Emerging Media Pending major, taking Common Program Prerequisite courses, along with General Education Program courses, and Basic Level Core requirements. Students who are admitted into one of the following tracks must be admitted to UCF before beginning coursework.</em> <br><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/degree/emerging-media-bfa/character-animation-track/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Character Animation Track</strong></a> This track of studies encompasses all aspects of the production process, from story creation to film completion, while working as part of a team.
