Graphic Design is an evolving multi-disciplinary industry where designers use technology, design, and social awareness to solve problems that inform, educate, and elicit responses from end-users.

Our BFA Graphic Design program at JSU creates designers who can tackle both the critical thinking and technical/formal production sides of visual communication. The courses in the graphic design concentration draw upon varied disciplines in the professional field and aid the student in developing an awareness of the diverse landscapes in which design functions. Through a sequence of courses, students become skilled at using traditional and contemporary technologies.
