Graphic designers can be considered visual communicators, as they create concepts by hand or by using specialized graphic design software. They inspire, inform, or captivate consumers through both physical and virtual art forms that include images, words, or graphics.
We’ll enhance your artistic talents by introducing you to design principles and color theory, and you will have many opportunities to show what you’ve learned by using different print and digital processes.
After you take classes in the liberal arts, you can tackle courses in advertising, package design, web design and more. Throughout the program, you’ll assemble a professional design portfolio through a capstone project.
Career opportunities for those who major in areas within the Division of Graphic Communication vary. Many of our graduates pursue careers in a variety of industries such as printing, publishing, web design and development, and animation.
