Overview

The Bachelor of Arts in Digital Arts and Sciences (BADAS) graduate will gain experience working in collaborative teams on media projects including digital storytelling, animation, and game design including serious and applied games.

Department Requirements

In addition to meeting university-level requirements, students seeking admission to this program must submit a personal statement of intent and supplemental support materials directly to the University of Florida Digital Worlds Institute. The content and quality of these submissions, in addition to previous academic GPA, will be significant factors to determine admission into the program.
The personal statement refers to an original document created by the applicant that details interests, motivations and rationale for seeking program admission. The statement should be one to two pages in length and demonstrate a serious intent to pursue the program and the writing ability appropriate for admission as an upper-division student at a major American university.
Support materials refer to a body of original creative or technical work authored, documented and presented in a contemporary digital format. The support materials would contain examples of the applicant's best original work completed before seeking admission to the BADAS program.
The statement and support materials are due by March 15 of the sophomore year for admission into upper-division coursework. Students may not take 3000/4000-level DIG courses without submission of both the personal statement and support materials.
Students must complete all critical-tracking courses with minimum grades of C in each course and the minimum critical-tracking GPA must be 2.5. Students who do not meet these requirements will be placed on academic probation and required to prepare a probation contract with an advisor. Students normally are given two terms in which to remove their deficit points; however, students who do not satisfy the conditions of the first term of probation may be dismissed from the program.
