The curriculum can be split into two major components: an information systems component, and an entrepreneurship component. Various electives are available for students who want to focus on a particular component over others. During their senior year, students are required to take the Capstone course, in which students from all 3 TAD majors (Creative Technology Management, Culture & Design Management, Information & Interaction Design) work together to design and create a product or service of their choice.
