The DMC can be used by any full-time student in the Schools of Arts & Sciences and Engineering. The center is a non-academic facility open to students of all majors and enrolled in all courses. Students are welcome to work on both academic and non-academic projects.

The Digital Media Center comprises several full- and part-time professional staff, as well as trained student staff. In addition to the director there there are digital audio and digital video specialists, and a technical support specialist. Many levels of instruction are available for the students, from basic book/CD-based tutorials to staff-run demonstrations and workshops. Guest artists will be invited to display their work, offer seminars and master classes.

The DMC includes a lab area and digital music suite. The lab features high-end Dell and Apple computers, scanners and tablets. Lab software enables digital video editing, creation of transitions/effects, vector graphics, web site creation, animation, photo and image manipulation, 3-D modeling and virtual drawing and painting. Works of art can be burned to CD/DVD, published on a web server, or printed on photo or large format color printers.

The digital music suite contains a state-of-the art composition, recording and editing system complete with synthesizers, keyboards, effects processing and digital recording. After participating in prerequisite training, students can check-out video cameras, light and sound kits, cables, and assorted peripherals if they wish to work off-site. A well-appointed presentation room is available to students who wish to present their ideas and projects in a professional setting.
