BS in Visual Communication

The way that content is designed and displayed is an important and fast-evolving component of the information revolution. MTSU students enrolled in this concentration learn how to work with current technology used in both digital and print design, while also studying theories and practices of visual communication. Topics range from traditional typography to interactive design. The main emphasis of the visual communication program is on visual storytelling through various forms of publication design. This can include print and interactive media that delivers the information, opinion, and entertainment via magazines, newsletters, brochures, websites, and mobile apps.
