Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design

Program Overview

The BFA in graphic design degree integrates art and design based on studio practice and a comprehensive examination of the history and theories of visual studies. Through this transmedia approach, students learn to connect content with design in order to convey a significant message, individually and through collaboration with others. Students acquire technical knowledge, practical professional experience and achieve an awareness of relevant ethical issues. Throughout the program, students learn how graphic designers can make a positive, sustainable impact on society by engaging in many different forms of cultural production, thereby promoting leadership through the development of innovative work in an ever-changing global community.

Students in the BFA graphic design program fulfill the same core requirements as for the BA in studio art. In addition, they must complete 6 further credit hours in art history and criticism; 30 further credit hours in design courses; 3 credits of a practicum experience; and 3 credit hours with the BFA thesis.
