BFA Graphic Design

Graphic Design can convey a narrative that may compel the purchase of a product, or shape the meaning of countless types of media. At its best, graphic design can embody ideas and principles that influence decisions that impact society positively.

Our curriculum approaches graphic design from a multidisciplinary perspective of the arts and humanities which develop thinking and conceptual abilities that expand communication skills. Students engage in real-world design projects that emphasize the principles and theories of strategic problem solving with a strong commitment towards artistic quality.

At Caldwell University, you will enjoy small class sizes, working closely with your professors to develop your skills and learn about art professions. Our faculty work with students to secure internships leading to job placement after graduation. While at Caldwell, students benefit from regular trips to New York City and New Jersey museums and galleries, study abroad opportunities, and other departmental activities, including luncheons, Kappa Pi events, end-of-semester critiques, and our annual job and internship fair. 

The B.F.A. degree prepares students to enter a career within an area of specialization or to pursue further study on a graduate level. Graduates may find employment in diverse areas such as advertising firms, small businesses, corporate environments and industries, graphic design studios, museums, brand consulting companies, social media agencies, publishing companies and many others.
