Whenever you encounter a rock concert or classical music performance, tune into your favorite television or radio show or scroll through any officially-produced video online, you are experiencing work created by media arts and entertainment technology professionals.

There are an abundance of career options available in these fields, and MCC’s Media Arts and Entertainment Technology (MAET) program prepares students to explore the many options available in Michigan and around the country. Additionally, students have the option to transfer and continue their studies at a four-year college program.
