Bachelor of Fine Arts - Graphic Design - Visual Design

The BFA degree in Graphic Design with a concentration in Visual Design is designed to give students a strong overview of the industry. A focus on the software/technical skills combined with design and the study of typography establishes a strong foundation for future designers. Students develop skills and aesthetics while solving a myriad of design problems that involve planning and producing 2-D and 3-D design collateral for print promotions, editorial design, packaging, and web solutions. A Graphic Design portfolio should demonstrate strong typography and layout expertise, original thinking and concept development all while exhibiting an impeccable sense of craft. The degree culminates in a senior-level Portfolio Development course. Graduates leave with a portfolio book, a digital portfolio, website, résumé, business card, and leave-behind.
