What will I learn?

The B.F.A. in Visual Communication Design is a professional level degree open to outstanding students through an application process who are preparing for design studies, careers and professional activity in design beyond the undergraduate level.

Designers explore a variety of visual communication design topics dealing with diverse messages and audiences. Students interested in pursuing a career in design, including visual communication design, graphic design, motion graphics, animation, digital media, etc. may apply into the B.F.A. in Visual Communication Design. Students planning to graduate in four years with a B.F.A. in Visual Communication Design should complete their Foundation Core in their Freshman year and take the appropriate Studio Core classes in their sophomore year. As a Professional Degree, the B.F.A. in Visual Communication Design does not include the A&S Outside Major credit requirement.

The Visual Communication Design degree provides students with a human-centered approach to making and thinking as designers. Students learn through digital and hand’s-on-making design challenges to develop critical narrative skills and refine their ability to think conceptually. Individual projects and research prepare each student to think flexibly in an international community that is continually being influenced by new ideas, tools, and technologies. The Visual Arts Building, design computer classroom, and design and fabrication studio facilities offer undergraduate students ample research, design, and production space and access to cutting-edge technology, and open-source and industry standard software and tools for design exploration.
