设计师通过形成构成我们日常体验的对象，通信和环境的形式来塑造我们的视野和对世界的理解。通过排版，图像制作和视觉讲故事的设计师，设计师可以形象化渗透到整个社会的问题，并提出具有创新性的解决方案，从而有可能在地方，国家和全球范围内影响变化。在LMU，设计是文科经验不可或缺的部分。我们培养能够识别和探索世界上最紧迫问题的差异制造者。我们认为，图形设计的最大潜力远不止其为消费者服务的历史。通过以人为本的方法，我们通过设计将现有情况转换为更可取的情况。
Visual communication/graphic design shapes the way we see and understand the world by giving form to the objects, communications, and environments that make up our everyday experiences. Through typography, image making, and visual storytelling, designers visualize the issues that permeate our society, and pose innovative solutions with the potential to affect change on a local, national, and global scale.<br><br>At LMU, we cultivate designers who identify and explore the most pressing problems of our world. We believe the greatest potential for graphic design goes far beyond its history of service to consumerism. The ubiquity of design and its potential to transform our world has never been greater so does design's ability to influence the quality of our lives. LMU's graphic designers take a compassionate approach, promoting social justice and realizing societal change through social discourse, community building, and entrepreneurship.
