The field of graphic design has surpassed its role as a commercial art practice and plays an essential role in how the world communicates today. Graphic design has become indispensable for communicating vast experiences of place, product, service or personality in every imaginable context. This career path challenges students to develop design solutions by experimenting with various tools, including advertising, logo design, type design, books and digital magazine production, packaging, photography, motion graphics and apps to create compelling graphic identities and branded experiences across a wide range of perpetually evolving media.
