The Computational Media Design (CMD http://www.cmd.ucalgary.ca/)
Graduate Program at the University of Calgary is looking for
exceptional MSc/PhD students. Successful applicants will join a small
group of researchers who are exploring exciting relationships among
art, design, science and technology.

The Computational Media Design Graduate program is composed of the
Department of Computer Science, the Faculty of Environmental Design
and the Faculty of Arts at the University of Calgary. Students who
complete the CMD program earn graduate degrees, either Master of
Science or PhD, and are funded throughout their graduate degree.

In the expanding world of multimedia and design there is an increasing
need for graduates who can conduct and direct complex projects that
combine computing expertise with the creative energies of artists and
designers. Numerous opportunities exist for our graduates in companies
whose primary business is game design and development, film, TV, web
design, simulation, networking, interactive media, and mobile and
wearable computing to name just a few. Interest in our graduates also
comes from the creative fields of dance, music, theatre and the visual
arts.

Our research-based graduate degrees explore the relationships between
and among art, design, science and technology. Successful applicants
will be supervised by two members of our Faculty
(http://www.cmd.ucalgary.ca/people) enabling them to conduct research
at the intersection of art, design and computer science.

We are located at the vibrant city of Calgary, an hour drive away from
the mountains and lakes of the beautiful Canadian Rockies.
