课程简介
The Graphic Design program is committed to teaching professional skills that allow students to plan and execute visual communication according to the needs of audiences in specific contexts. Our students gain a thorough understanding of the principles of design, theories of communication, and strategies for problem-solving, by working on a wide range of projects that apply cognitive, social, and cultural human factors to inform, instruct, and persuade. In addition to developing solid professional skills, courses in our curriculum explore emerging design practices, and theoretical concerns with a focus on the cultural, technical, and communicative potential of graphic design.<br><br>The program is structured as a sequence of core studios in design fundamentals, typography, image-making, and history courses, that progressively introduce form and concept-development skills across a range of media. As students enter their junior and senior years, they apply their skills to real-world, contemporary design problems by interacting with a wide range of clients, organizations, and local communities through the Internship and Design Studio programs.
