Overview

Key Features

Through classroom projects and work with real clients, you will become well versed technically and well practiced in design thinking, business practices and professional relationships. You will be mentored by faculty artists who have exhibited nationally and boast national clients. Our graduates have an exceptional job placement record and are web and print designers, creative directors, art directors and creative services managers across the country. You will train in fundamental studio art mediums, then translate those skills to a digital workflow using industry standard equipment, such as Macintosh computers and a host of contemporary tools housed in the Graphic Design Lab at Marietta College in Hermann Fine Arts Center. Additional courses in painting, printmaking, art history and research will introduce you to a variety of ideas and methods.

Portfolio: Students do not need a portfolio to be accepted into the Graphic Design program. Prospective students who do have a well-developed portfolio of Studio Art or Graphic Design may wish to apply for the Art Scholarship. There is a formal review of student work during the sophomore year. This student presentation to the Studio Art and Graphic Design Faculty serves as a critical assessment of the student’s progress, and is aimed at evaluating the student's success, commitment, and future potential in the program.

Dedication: A dedication and commitment to personal development is also expected of students majoring in Graphic Design. Unique and original ideas are encouraged and fostered in the program. Students who are able to make time outside of the classroom to develop their skill, craft, and own independent sensibilities and styles will benefit the greatest.

Technology: Students do not need to invest in their own personal computer — up to date hardware and software is offered and accessible to all enrolled students. Its use is encouraged for all underclassman. Upper class students who have gained both an understanding of Macintosh Computers and a dedication to graphic design may wish to acquire their own machine, as their academic demands grow.
