About Art Computer Graphics program
The Art Computer Graphics (ACG) program at Fullerton College began as a specialized area of the Art Dept. in 1986. It has gradually expanded to provide broad-based instruction in all applications of computers in the visual arts.
Our students may work towards a transfer to a 4-year institution; earn a certificate in one of three areas of specialization (animation/multimedia, computer graphics, desktop publishing); or take individual classes to upgrade their job skills.
Classes are held in comprehensive facilities, providing a computer for each student, and full access during extended hours of operation.
To learn more about the program, please see our contact and admission information, as well as the current schedule of classes. more
