Do I need a computer?

Computer Recommendation


The Department recommends that students purchase a laptop computer, since most working areas on campus have wireless Internet access. When using computer labs on campus each student must back up their creative design work files each time equipment is used. For this back up file storage, we suggest iPod, iPhone or Flash drives.

Recommended Software:

Adobe®: Creative Suite 3 Master Collection® which includes the following:
InDesign CS3
Photoshop CS3 Extended
Illustrator CS3
Acrobat 8 Professional
Flash CS3 Professional
Dreamweaver CS3
