VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN

WELCOME

I welcome you all to the Visual Communication Design program.

The Visual Communication Design [VCD] program entered the twenty-first century with a commitment to excellence in traditional and contemporary graphic design education, professionalism, research, and service for the community at large. Faculty, alumni, students, and visiting designers/educators constantly reinforce the link between society and nature and vigorously advocate "quality" in developing communication strategies.

VCD's curriculum acknowledges the need for creative environments that address ecological concerns and encourages students to develop sustainable transdisciplinary works sensitive to cultural aesthetic. The curriculum rests on a strong foundation [design principles] provided in lower-division studio and lecture courses. Upper-division studio courses provide opportunities for students to work in collaborative teams addressing professional projects in information design, interaction design, exhibition design, animation, motion graphics, branding, publication design, web design, interface design, and multiple contemporary facets of sensorial design.

Feel free to explore vizualvoices.net, a site independently maintained, monitored, and voiced by our alumni and members of the Graphic Design Student Association.
The VCD faculty believes that the prime endorsement of the quality and continuing evolution of our program is sustained when voices are heard from an active, enthusiastic, and professionally progressive body of alumni and students.


Enjoy.
