If you want a job that keeps you young and hip, consider a creative career in multimedia arts and animation. Web design, animation, film production, video game design, graphic design, photography, 3-D art, 2-D art, and computer science are all immensely popular with the children of the Baby Boomers. So where do you go for an animation degree?
Consider Boston, MA, where over 100 colleges cater to the needs of nearly 250,000 students. It's easy to see why media, animation, and design seem to flourish here. Few cities around the world have comparable levels of youthful input and student involvement. When school is in session, nearly half of Boston's population is made up of students. If you're looking to break into media arts and animation, the local colleges in Boston are ideal.

But students in Boston are not limited to their campuses. After all, the city has a robust nightlife, countless museums, beautiful parks, numerous professional sports teams, access to the beach, breathtaking fall foliage, quaint ethnic neighborhoods, and some of the most exquisite seafood in the North Atlantic.
