Beschreibung des Programms

Siena Heights University Graphic Design students are considered artists and are encouraged to approach design as an artistic endeavor. The graphic design major encourages students to integrate their own personal and cultural values into their visual communication designs.

Scanners, graphic tablets, and large format inkjets are also part of the digital experience. Students also have use of traditional studio settings, including photography and printmaking.

The goal of the program is to provide students with a mastery of the creative process and the tools necessary to produce an advanced portfolio which will include print, web, and time-based media. The investigation of visual culture theory and the history of graphic design introduces students to the historical and critical perspective of the profession, providing a solid background from which to begin their own design journey.

Near the end of the program, students will take the required Portfolio and Senior Exhibition courses and prepare a resume and other materials for employment, exhibit opportunities, and graduate school. Finally, the program culminates in an internship, a gallery show, and a portfolio presentation teaching students the practical skills needed to enter the professional field of graphic design with confidence.
