FULL SAIL UNIVERSITY

Introduction

EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

Empower students through an active relationship with the entertainment, technology, and media industries

Full Sail is dedicated to serving the needs and careers of students and graduates by actively engaging the companies that make up the entertainment, technology, and media industries, both in the United States and around the world. At Full Sail, every program of study goes through ongoing assessment and evolution, ensuring that students receive an education that is current and relevant. This is accomplished through industry feedback and insight, and the specific guidance of groups of entertainment, technology, and media professionals who make up Program Advisory Committees for each program of study. In addition, the university's commitment to a close relationship with the industry allows employers to easily recruit qualified talent, and also allows the Career Development department to promote graduates to the widest possible audience.

Connect students with educators and industry guests who inspire and challenge

The core of Full Sail University is the staff, many of whom bring years of industry credentials and educational experience to the university. Because many Full Sail educators and guests are active in the professional community through conventions, industry affiliations, and professional projects, they are able to inspire students with current knowledge that speaks to how entertainment, technology, and media companies create exceptional professional product.

Provide learning environments that are real world

Full Sail's campus is designed to provide students with educational environments that are on par with some of the best production facilities in the world. In these studios, labs, and classrooms, students gain real-world experience with the creative and technical tools employed at all levels of the industry. At the same

time, they learn the same production workflow used in film productions, recording sessions, live events, animation and design projects, and in the development of video games, websites, and entertainment business strategies.

Full Sail's online courses and degrees are driven by a realworld approach that uses current technology to educate and inspire. Through the capabilities of today's Internet, traditional assignments are complemented by videos, animations, and interactive exercises. Full Sail's online learning environment is also built around the concept of connecting students with people ? from accessible instructors, to exclusive guest lecturers, to collaboration tools that enable students to meet, share, and receive feedback from peers.

Whether on campus or online, Full Sail's goal is to deliver a real-world educational experience that is engaging and exceptional.

Promote professionalism throughout the educational experience

From the beginning, Full Sail's tenet has been that students should approach their education like professionals because it will increase their chance for success throughout their careers. There are initiatives woven throughout a student's educational journey designed to instill professional protocol, attitude, and a mindset for creativity and success. These elements are integral to the Full Sail real- world educational formula, alongside up-todate curricula, professional settings, immersive projects, and experienced educators.

Similar to Full Sail's other program offerings, the proposed curriculum of the Computer Science Master of Science Degree Program supports the university's mission and harmonizes well with the university's unique style of education that incorporates creativity, technical skills, and academic proficiency. The proposed degree will also continue to extend our students an active relationship with the computer science industry as well as provide a sophisticated learning environment in which to build their skill sets and knowledge for the professional realm.

HISTORY

SOME HIGHLIGHTS

Since Full Sail's inception in 1979, over 70,000 graduates have prepared for careers in the entertainment and media industry. The following features some of the highlights of Full Sail's history as well as that of our graduates.

In 1980, Full Sail moved from its original home in Dayton, Ohio to Orlando, Florida. During the six years that followed, new audio courses were added to the original recording arts offering until, in 1986, the Recording Arts Comprehensive Program was introduced. In 1988, a new curriculum with a focus on the visual arts was born -- the Video and Film Production Comprehensive Program. In July 1989, Full Sail moved into its current home in Winter Park, Florida (a suburb of Orlando) which has since expanded into a 110+ studio multimedia campus.

August 1990 marked a milestone in history when Full Sail received accreditation allowing students to earn Specialized Associate's Degrees upon successful completion of the curricula in the Recording Arts and/or Film and Video Production Programs. A third Specialized Associate's Degree in Digital Media was launched in March 1995 ? this addition marked Full Sail's entrance into training for the vast, emerging field of interactive media.

March 1998 witnessed the introduction of the Game Design Specialized Associate's Degree as well as the Show Production & Touring Specialized Associate's Degree. In January of that same year, Full Sail achieved additional accreditation and licensing enabling students to earn Associate of Science Degrees in Recording Arts, Film and Video Production, and Digital Media. In February of 1999, a new accredited program was introduced -- the Computer Animation Associate of Science Degree. Additionally, the Game Design and Show Production & Touring Programs were modified and approved to be offered as Associate of Science Degrees.

In November 2003, Full Sail offered its first Bachelor's Degree the Entertainment Business Bachelor of Science Degree Program. In addition, the Game Development Degree Program was revised and expanded to become a Bachelor of Science Degree Program.

Another milestone was achieved in August 2005 when three of Full Sail's Associate of Science Degrees were revised and expanded to become Bachelor of Science Degrees ? Computer Animation, Digital Arts & Design (formerly Digital Media), and Film. In April of 2006, the Entertainment Business Bachelor's Degree Program changed focus slightly and was renamed Music Business.
