Description

This paper presents a model, case study, and prototypical example of how a major educational institution evolves from splintered, specialized, interdisciplinary fields of study, in which each major area develops independently of other related areas, to a unified, focused, all-encompassing field of study in which all areas develop as interdependent technologies. This paper will discuss the evolution, challenges, and opportunities for educational institutions that desire to transform a traditional engineering design graphics (EDG) program into a digital media program.
