<p>Yes i did use the search function but i didn't find what i was looking for. im going to be applying in about a month and i wanted to confirm something before i applied for EE. My question is: is there a major that well roundedly integrates graphics design/3d animation with math and physics? I do have a profound fascination in art but i don't want to let my potential in math/physics go to waste. My interest in art leans toward something you would see in movies or video games; nothing really related to architecture or computer science. If the two fields are unrelated, would it be a good idea to double major? I feel a graphics designer with a strong background in math and physics would really make it any industry that calls for it. Any advice is fully appreciated.</p>
<p>Cnix, you have a couple of options. University of Pennsylvania has a major that combines fine art with computer information systems and engineering. It might be exactly what you are asking for. </p>
<p>Cornell also seems to have a similar program but not quite as good as UP.</p>
<p>Also, you could major in a field such as Digital Design, which is offered by the University of Cincinnati, which is a lot of graphic design plus computer work including programming and minor in math or engineering.</p>
<p>RIT has a "new media " program that might be very suitable for you.</p>
<p>Good luck</p>
<p>Ah, sorry, I won't be any help at all, but I wanted to say--I have exactly the same problem. I love physics..I'm barely starting to actually study it and already I know it's something that really calls to me, and I'm very good in math. But I love art too! How on earth do you pull those together...
Well, if you find out anything, let us know!
(I'm going to be watching this thread too)</p>
<p>Then you MUST attend MIT and study with John Maeda!</p>

<p>does Princeton/ Columbia have anything similar to that ^ (if anyone knows)</p>
