What a fantastic semester of innovation and creativity!
At miniMerge, 19 incredible Emerging Media teams showcased their Beta products. Following their presentations, students met with dedicated groups of Emerging Media alumni serving as Capstone Consultants who shared their advice and wisdom to help our teams plan for user testing and 1.0 development. Staying true to our motto of “making it work better,” we embraced some new-to-us technology with Silent Disco headphones. This fun, yet practical, addition allowed teams to present simultaneously while fostering collaboration and movement throughout the room.
Following miniMerge, SLAM was equally spectacular! Eight teams of New Media Certificate students took the stage to present their Capstone projects to a room full of family, friends, alumni, and industry partners. From impactful client work to groundbreaking ideas designed for the Apple Vision Pro, the energy and creativity on display were nothing short of inspiring.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us in person and remotely to support our talented students! We would also like to give another round of applause to all the Certificate and Emerging Media students for their hard work and achievements this semester!
