BA in Graphic Design

The rich background of our liberal arts core encourages curiosity about the work and engages students in critical thinking and problem-solving. Our graphic design program provides a theoretical understanding of design principles and the technical skills required of a professional designer.

Students develop promotional materials for many community organizations which results in a heightened sense of civic responsibility. A graphic design internship is also required to expose students to a broad range of cultural experiences. At the completion of the program, students are fully prepared to compete and succeed in the design industry.
