Visual messaging is about much more than aesthetics; it's also about behavior and identity. Art can influence consumers, build bridges between individuals and organizations, and inspire conversation.

The Digital Arts & Design Bachelor of Science degree program provides a comprehensive look at the entire design process – from concept to creation and from presentation to implementation. Throughout the curriculum, you'll explore the foundational elements of 2D and 3D art theory, utilize hardware and software used by current design professionals, and hone your own eye for visual messaging.
