The Graphic Design Program combines problem-solving skills, planning and analysis with inovative form-giving as a means to successful visual communications. Emphasis is placed on conceptual message development and fundamental theory rather than vocational training.

Believing a liberal education is an intellectual necessity for future graphic designers the program relies heavily on the University's broad selection of classes in the education of it's design students.
