Laurea in Belle Arti in Design Grafico

Graphic design is a vital field of professional art practice that shapes culture through a wide range of print and digital media. The graphic design program offers a distinctive education in the art and practice of image and digitally based graphic design and experimental publishing and encourages students to see the field as an open frame whose applications can be commercial, political, educational, literary, subversive, personal, and experimental.

We prepare students for the range of options in the field by providing a hands-on studio environment emphasizing the marriage of formal and conceptual skills. You’ll learn to solve visual communication problems through critical thinking and using words, symbols, and images in two, three, and four dimensions. Experienced professional faculty members help students find their own voice and approach to design in a facility that encourages experimentation in various methodologies and technologies.

We’re the eccentric cousin of the SUNY family. We’re the dreamers, the DIYers, the future of arts and culture, of the humanities and the sciences. We’re passionate about everything—from rigorous coursework to current events to the music lineup at Culture Shock. We live on a collaborative and sustainable campus, and we work to create the kind of society we want to see in the world. We respect others, ourselves, and our surroundings as we grow into the people who will make real change someday.

We’re inclusive, LGBTQ-welcoming, and always actively seeking new ways to foster diversity in our academic programs and on our campus. So “Think Wide Open” has come to mean a lot to us. You’re not constrained by a major, or a residence hall, or a background. You’re entering one of the most challenging and exciting times of your life–embrace it!
