What kind of person creates their now?

Just like you, the individuals featured on the next few pages have made the decision to take up a creative call to arms.

Dual Certificate Web Design + Development

“The experience I’ve received from instructors has been really involved, really in-depth, really intricate.”

Design. Build. Maintain.

It’s as much a mantra as part of the certificate curriculum.

In this program, you opt in full force. It’s all about diving down deep into the practicalities, technicalities and sensibilities of web design and development.

Usability may be the name of the game, but you’ll also learn how to get everything dressed to the nines.

In the end, fully functional is how they’ll describe your websites and career readiness.

Matt Strauss Dual Certificate Program: Web Design + Development Background: BFA; works in print design and social media strategy.

Vikas Raykar Drawing & Painting Classes Background: PhD in computer science; master’s degree in engineering; works as a research scientist.

Art + Design

“At work, it’s about the back and forth – satisfying the entire team. But drawing and painting, it’s about doing it for me.”

A blank canvas. A block of clay. Uncarved wood.

They all depend on the creative impulse. And you don’t have to be an old master to have it.

All you need is that initial spark. We’ll help you make it an artistic explosion.

Cause at UArts, it doesn’t matter whether the studio was once your second home or you’re crossing its threshold for the first time. You’ll belong here.

We have oils, tile, acrylics, sand casting, high-speed lenses, charcoal, forging, typography and so much more to explore.

Whatever your medium, whatever your approach, it’s time you let out your creative.

Fall 2011 Course Brochure | 7

Dual Certificate Print + Web Design

“UArts has been a huge decision changer.

I know there are jobs out there that I would love and I am qualified for.”

Always in a state of rebirth, the digital age never grows old.

So fire up your Mac. We’ll show you how to realize the virtually endless possibilities of Dreamweaver, Maya, InDesign, Flash, HTML and Photoshop.

Whether you want to stop paying your sister’s kid to update your website or you need to learn how to resolve a design issue Tuesday night for a Wednesday-morning deadline – we’ll give you the bandwidth to turn out professional-grade digital media.

Cruise the only boulevard where digital technology and art intersect. At UArts, you’ll explore design trends. Absorb best practices. And avoid digital black holes.

They say everything’s relative. Here, everything’s relevant.

Certificate Digital Photography

“In terms of cost and prestige, there’s nothing in Philadelphia like UArts. It has accelerated the growth of my portfolio and my perspective.”

Exposure.

You’ll get it at UArts.

Camera “raw,” aperture, color management, studio shoots, retouching, commercial and fine art photography – here, you’ll see it all and more.

Because in this business, image really is everything, you’ll learn more than just techniques to shoot and manipulate images using digital technology. We’ll give you what it takes to capture the essence of whatever’s in your lens.

What are you waiting for? Take your shot.
