POE: Media Art & Technology

My POE Media Arts & Technology consists of IMA and Computer Science. IMA has helped me get the best of both worlds. Merging my love for art and creative with creating apps. I love how I get to build an app and get to use my artistic side, and all have learned from my IMA classes. What more can I ask for? IMA has helped me see the numerous opportunities I can go into. In particular, the client-based classes have helped me to identify that this is what I want to do as a career. After all, IMA has helped me realize that I can establish a career doing what I love which is to continuously create!

POE: English, Secondary in Integrated Media Arts

My greatest love is for stories in any form. As an English POE with a secondary emphasis in IMA, I was able to explore art in forms such as novels, memoirs, and poetry, as well as examples of television, graphic art, and interactive media. IMA has given me opportunities to write and edit for projects that are very likely similar to ones I would work on in my career after graduation.

POE: Multimedia Production w/ Secondary Emphases in Communication + English

I think the IMA program, and Juniata as a whole, has given me the chances I need to explore different avenues of media. My individualized POE, Multimedia Production, allows me to take my various interests – music, art, video – and blend them together in a program that summarizes my college experience. The IMA program recognizes that there are many interests that intersect and the freedom it allows is directly in line with what I think a liberal arts education should be.

POE: Multimedia Journalism

I came to Juniata not exactly sure of what I wanted to do, I just had a passion for social media, theater and storytelling. The IMA department found me and allowed me to realize that I could transfer my love for sharing stories in a digital, creative format. By being exposed to so much through my IMA classes, I found my passion for TV journalism. Despite not having a journalism program, my POE has set me up to be a self sufficient TV reporter right out of college. I feel confident filming, editing and talking in front of a camera every day through my role at WNEP-TV because I got so much video experience at Juniata.
