GRAPHIC DESIGN



Graphic designers are artists who apply their talents to solving the visual communications problems of their clients. For graphic designers, there are as many and varied career options as there are designers. Many graphic designers find career opportunities in corporations, government agencies, and advertising and design firms; others choose to work independently as freelancers. Projects that designers work on can include books, magazines, posters, packaging, websites, or signage. Any time there is a need to communicate a message to an audience, there is a need for a talented graphic designer.




The graphic design program provides students with a foundation in the principles, history, theory, and professional practices of design in order to prepare them for advanced study at a four-year institution. Guided by a faculty of both professional designers and design educators, students explore various approaches and solutions to design problems while learning to develop and articulate their own unique visions as designers and artists. The rich design and corporate communities in Wilmington also afford students the opportunity to interact with the professional design community and to work on real client-based projects in the classroom.
