Graphic Design
Communication is the transmission of information and knowledge.
graphic designers explore a variety of communication issues that deal with
diverse messages and audiences. Designers utilize words and images to
express ideas that serve to inform, convince or call to action both
individuals and audiences through many different and dynamic forms of visual
communication. Print, interactive and motion design make up some of
the many avenues of graphic design. Graphic designers are employed in
a variety of settings, including design firms, advertising agencies,
communication companies, as well as internal communication departments in
corporations, institutions or governmental agencies.
The graphic design/visual communication area serves to provide students with a "human centered" approach to learning that challenges and nurtures them to think conceptually and prepares them to be flexible in an international community that is continually being influenced by new ideas, tools and technology.
The visual communications center is a facility for undergraduate research that functions as a classroom, studio and high end technology space and incorporates industry standard tools for graphic design and digital art exploration.
