The specialization in graphic design is offered through the Department of Arts, Culture, and Media (ACM). ACM houses programs and/or majors in fine arts, graphic design, art history, media studies (with majors in journalism and video production), music, and theater. Each major includes an ACM core sequence requirement. Taking advantage of the range of disciplines in ACM and the campus mission to engage with its community, the core combines an integrated sequence of classes, shaped in large part by projects drawn from the urban region surrounding the university. The sequence consists of three classes: Introduction to Arts, Culture, and Media, a class designated by each program that combines interdisciplinary pedagogy with a student's major, and either Colloquium in Arts, Culture, and Media or Seminar in Arts, Culture, and Media.
