ABOUT US :

Pioneering Full Time Education in India
In the year 2003, the growing business opportunities in India in Animation, Visual FX and Gaming had created a need for high quality professionals having skills to handle International projects with ease. Organizations like NASSCOM were advocating the need for Full Time Specialized training to fulfill this requirement.
ICAT – Image College of Arts, Animation & Technology was then established in 2004 with a goal to provide holistic, advanced and specialized education in various Digital Design and Media disciplines. It began by offering full time Post Graduate Diplomas in 3D Animation, Visual FX and Game Development. The shortage of specialized Game Designers paved the way for the launch of Game Design curriculum in 2006.
Pioneering Bachelor’s Degree Programs
A survey among high school students by ICAT during 2005-2006 revealed the students’ awareness of Digital Media as an exciting career option, their eagerness to pursue a career in Digital Media and the desire for a Full time College Level Degree Program. To address this need, ICAT launched 3 year Full time B.A. in Digital Media Degree programs in 2006 in 3D Animation, Visual FX, Game Design and Game Development.
