The Graphic Design, B.F.A. degree provides students with comprehensive practical knowledge of a diverse area of study. While graphic designers are visual communicators, they are also researchers, problem solvers, and, sometimes, artists. Through the synthesis of traditional and contemporary theories and practices students learn the skills and processes needed to communicate visually through today’s diverse media channels.
