Bachelor of Arts in Design

Program Overview

Apply to a design program that offers a uniquely holistic and interdisciplinary approach grounded in academic, creative and practical skills—and a commitment to sustainability and social justice.

Within our broadly informed curriculum, you will explore typography, digital imaging, digital layout, graphic design, web design, user experience (UI/UX) design, including motion graphics.

Both inside and outside of the classroom, you will combine theory and practice informed by readings, discussions and research as you hone your skills and abilities through internships, in-depth critiques and hands-on workshops within a sophisticated, creative, and inclusive studio environment.

This design degree is an intensive program in functional design, building on both traditional essentials and emerging concepts in visual applications and design thinking.

Design students graduate equipped with essential 21st-century visual literacy and interpretive skills. They emerge positioned to lead in the future with the ability to adapt, question the status quo and rethink themselves in relation to the world.
