Pursue Graphic Design

  • Graphic Design majors desire to channel their creative and critical thinking into the production and elevation of digital art. Recognizing the power of images to speak to people on a deeper level, graphic design majors learn to practically and skillfully produce digital media. They always want to improve and excel at crafting their own work and discovering avenues of self-expression.
  • Art courses require in-person studio time to develop skills under the guidance of a professor. As art courses show students “how to do” art, other courses will inform students how to understand and be inspired by humanity and their world.
  • This degree can be completed completely on campus or with a mix of online and on-campus courses.
  • GHC’s Graphic Design degree is a good first step toward a bachelor’s in Art or Digital Animation while also developing workplace-ready design skills.
