Avantech donated the latest Canon photo video equipment – camera bodies, lenses and accessories – to Mcast’s Institute of Art and Design. This will ensure better training facilities for students following courses in this field.
The Mcast Institute of Art and Design was one of the first institutes set up in 2001 when the college was founded. Since then it has been a growing success story that continues to develop new vocational education opportunities in 3D-design, fine arts, graphic design, interactive media, media (moving image) and photography.
The institute is now venturing into areas of specialisation such as game graphics and creative mobile technologies.
The institute’s collaboration with the local Industry has ensured an added opportunity for students to train in the real world of work.
