The minor in IDD provides students with a basic literacy, understanding and competency for creating, designing and authoring original interactive art and design for CD-ROMs, DVDs, desktop presentation and for the World Wide Web.

A minor may be combined with any major inside or outside the College of Arts and Sciences, complementing majors or minors in other disciplines on campus.
