The Bachelor of Science in Graphic Arts degree prepares students to plan, analyze, and create visual solutions to communication challenges. The combination of the study of theory and a mastery of in-studio visual communication methods enables students to get messages across in print, electronic, and film media using a variety of methods, such as color, type, illustration, photography, animation, and various print and layout techniques. Graduates can seek employment in advertising agencies, design studios, publishing houses, or corporate-communication departments in entry-level positions as a graphic designer, a production artist for a design staff, a freelance designer, or as a junior art director. A majority of the courses offered in this program are delivered through a hybrid model which means instructors meet with students both face to face and through an online platform each week.
