Master in Visual Design

Exploring the essential qualities of visual communication in human society, while studying the techniques of visual transmission in a variety of information media.

By adopting a comprehensive new approach that considers design from a range of perspectives - from artistic to engineering, information, and economic - the Nagaoka Institute of Design seeks to encourage students to discover new roles and possibilities for design in the 21st century. From the campus layout to the buildings, facilities, and equipment, every aspect of the study environment here has been designed to serve an educational purpose. Through such efforts, we continually strive to realize an innovative design education philosophy befitting the new age in which we live.
