Graphic Design Bachelor of Arts (Major: Bachelor-Level)

Graphic Designers use creativity, critical thinking and artistic skill to solve some of today's most interesting problems. Graphic Design shows up everywhere from brands developed for large corporations, to patterns created for products sold in stores, to the interfaces used on computer programs and in apps. As a Graphic Design student at BYU Idaho, you first engage in a wide variety of experiences that help you develop core skills in design processes, typography, visual communication, and software tools. You will then explore applying those skills in one of three emphasis areas: Branding and Identity Design, Surface and Pattern Design, or UX/UI Design. After successfully completing this program, you are ready for an engaging career in Graphic Design.Students may initially declare a Graphic Design major but, will apply to continue on in the major towards the end of their sophomore year after completing a series of core courses. Students who do not continue on in the major may complete a minor in Graphic Design or a concentration in Graphic Design that can be used with an Interdisciplinary Studies degree.
