Computer Graphics Technology: 3D and Video Graphics AAS Degree


Schoolcraft program code # AAS.00032

Similar to the 3D and Video Graphics Certificate , this degree prepares students for a career combining the skills of three-dimensional imaging and video production. In addition, it includes capstone courses that develop creative and practical skills beyond what is taught in the certificate program, as well as coursework that meets the general education requirements for a Schoolcraft associate of applied science (AAS) degree. The degree strengthens the student’s position in the profession and gives the student an academic credential with a higher standing.

Students who satisfactorily complete all college and program requirements qualify for an associate of applied science degree. Students wishing to pursue a post-associate certificate must have a computer graphics technology associate degree or equivalent professional experience.

Not all courses are offered each semester. Students should work with an academic advisor or CGT faculty to develop a schedule that will work for them. Students planning to transfer should check the transfer institution’s requirements/guides or discuss their options with an academic advisor. Number of credits may vary depending on the course selection.
