���Ĵ�ý

As a graphic design major at ���Ĵ�ý, you’ll learn to use the elements of art and design to create attractive, cohesive work that serves your client’s needs.

You’ll take classes founded on the truth that as image-bearers, we create to honor and reflect our Creator. Though we teach the principles of design, we also honor the mystery that lies behind creation as a spiritual discipline.

In your classes, you’ll explore what makes professional design so compelling. You’ll discover how art informs the best design, and your work will be evaluated not only on its aesthetic appeal but on how well it serves its purpose. The first half of the graphic design degree program covers art and design fundamentals. In the second, you’ll apply what you’ve learned in-studio classes. You’ll finish with a senior thesis portfolio project, where you’ll compile and present your work at a public exhibition.

At ���Ĵ�ý, we believe that practice and feedback cultivate artistic excellence, which is why all students are required to complete an internship. Additionally, our graphic design classes are project-based. You’ll engage in client-focused work, provide a rationale for your design choices, revise your work, and give and receive constructive feedback. 

With a graphic design major, your courses will emphasize digital design, teaching you to use programs such as Illustrator and Design Photoshop.

After you graduate with a bachelor of graphic design, you’ll be ready to design anywhere. Graphic design degree graduates at ���Ĵ�ý have worked in production design, art direction, print and digital design, user experience design, and even mural design.
