Major Requirements

To earn a Bachelor of Arts in Digital Technology and Culture students must complete the WSU UCORE, the College of Arts & Sciences undergraduate requirements, and 39 credits in Digital Technology and Culture. This includes a 15 credit core of classes, a selected track of 12 credits, and 12 credits of DTC electives. In addition, two Writing in the Major [M] courses are required as a part of a student’s major coursework.

A student may be admitted to the DTC major at any point during a semester. To be admitted, a student must have completed DTC 101 with a C or better. To remain in good standing in the major, students must: 1) Complete DTC 201 and DTC 206 with a C or better, and 2) Maintain an overall GPA at WSU of 2.0 or higher. No DTC course outside of 498 and 499 may be taken on a pass, fail basis.

In addition, in order to graduate, all seniors must complete a Senior Exit Survey.

For more information about the DTC major please make an appointment with Jill Shafer, the DTC Academic Advisor.

All DTC students take the same required 5 core courses (15 credits).

DTC 101 [ARTS]: Introduction to Digital Technology
DTC 201 [ARTS]: Tools and Methods for Digital Technology and Culture
DTC 206 [DIVR]: Digital Inclusion OR DTC 475 [DIVR]: Digital Diversity
DTC 497 [CAPS]: Senior Seminar
DTC 498: Internship

Then choose one track below and take the 4 courses (12 credits).

Choose any 4 DTC Elective Courses (12 credits) to fulfill the rest of your major requirements. You may not use a course twice (i.e. once as a DTC Core requirement and once as a DTC Elective). Students may substitute one class (3 credits) in the elective options with DTC 499. Your degree work must include two Writing in the Major courses (demarkaeted with a [M]). These may be taken as a part of the core track coursework or as a DTC Elective.
