Graphic Design Degree (BS)

The Art of the Matter

Images and designs are literally everywhere. Some are memorable. They stand out. They evoke emotion. They stand the test of time. But those images don’t just happen. They take thought, skill, and the right tools.

Good graphic design takes training and HUAZ has that kind of training in spades.

We start with the foundation of good design which is fine art. From art history to painting to figure drawing, we make sure our graphic design students understand the elements of art and design. Building on that foundation, we dive into 2D and 3D art, as well as layout, raster, and vector-based classes, as students develop the technical skills needed to bring concepts to life. From there, we use the latest tools to inspire the next generation of artists to turn their vision into a reality.

"It was intimidating coming into the school because I knew nothing about graphic design. After three years at Huntington, I've learned so much and I'm really excited to start a new chapter in my life."

"What made me choose graphic design is the broad spectrum of careers I could pursue after graduating and the large toolkit of industry standard programs we use every day."
