Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Graphic Design] From California University of Pennsylvania

?Students benefit from focusing on how and why a designer creates. Students and faculty closely examine the creative process behind communication design. The emphasis is on visual thinking, experimentation and exploring the relationship of word and image. This examination of the design process helps students develop skills that will enable them to create multiple design solutions for any given problem. The Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design degree program at California University of Pennsylvania provides a thorough grounding in the visual and conceptual foundations of graphic design and its role in how we communicate visually through the various mediums available to a designer. Students also learn in a fully functioning student-run graphic design studio at Cal U: Studio 224 handles real-world jobs with clients ranging from The Women's Center at Cal U to The National Aviary and Pennsylvania's Department of Transportation. Studio 224 offers students invaluable experience in the business of graphic design over the four years of their study. Students often are asked to assist faculty with their own research and live jobs. All of these opportunities give graphic design students much-needed and valued real-world experience.
