Undergraduate

The Graphic Design program is a comprehensive course of study that includes formal and technical skills along with historical and theoretical information. Unlike many design programs that principally teach technology, students in the design program learn current technology and also study the history and theory of visual communication; the relationship of visual communication to new technologies; and the importance of visual communication to social and cultural concerns. This course of study qualifies the student for professional graphic design practice or graduate study in graphic design.
