École NAD - ïlot Balmoral

UQAC has teamed up with the renowned NAD (School of Digital Arts, Animation and Design) to offer, in Montreal, a solid professional training which allows students to master the theoretical and practical foundations of 3D content creation. With various educational strategies implemented in this innovative Bachelor degree program, students can discover, stimulate, develop and demonstrate their real potential which they can apply to full-fledged 3D production.

The students will be able to acquire two levels of specialization. The first level corresponds to the student's choice of concentration, either in the field of Visual Effects for Film and Video, or in the field of Video Games. By the fourth semester, a second level of specialization also allows students to discover and develop their personal creative skills in a 3D production chain that is expected when working in the industry.
