A minor in Digital Culture and Information (DCI) allows students to deeply explore how the digital age impacts knowledge and society.

The program is designed to teach students concepts and methods that will enhance their academic success within any major. Students participating in the program will gain significant experience with technological platforms, complex information resources, and visual design.
