“Our mission is to equip all Aggie students who seek careers in the fine arts with the foundational knowledge and cutting-edge digital literacy expertise that will set them apart. We’re doing this in a way that builds upon our strengths in science and technology. Art inspires science and science, engineering and technology enable new forms of art in a cycle of innovation that lifts each beyond what was possible without the other”
