UCLA Launches Three New Digital Arts Majors | Venice Beach News
Description
UCLA’s Design Media Arts department is launching three new BA degrees in Computational Art, Design, and Games starting fall 2027 — a major expansion from their single program since 1998. Designed to give students deeper, focused tracks in fast-growing creative fields, these majors honor the department’s roots in artist-driven digital innovation while preparing grads for careers at the intersection of art, tech, and culture. The Computational Art major blends code and data with artistic expression; the Design major explores visual communication and publishing as cultural practices; and the Games major offers hands-on development through UCLA’s Game Lab — all with an arts-first philosophy. This bold move aims to attract students with specific passions and equip them for the future of creative industries.
