    Communication Design

    About

    The Communication Design BFA is the oldest undergraduate program of its kind in the United States. In this major, you learn the theory and craft needed to combine words, images, and ideas to visually transmit information and project human experiences in print, on screen, or in space. You begin with an intensive study of typography and interaction and expand your expertise in brand and editorial design, digital products, type design, motion graphics, and spatial graphics.

    Students in this program focus on typography and interaction and explore industry-specific areas of study such as information design, branding, editorial, motion graphics, type design, or Web/mobile product design. They learn to create and share compelling messages from concept stage to final form while exploring the social and environmental dimensions of communication.
    • Foundations in Typography

      Investigate the visual shape of language and the way words appear in relation to one another and to their meaning.

    • Interaction Design and Coding

      Explore the relationships between people and digital experiences, and learn the coding fundamentals you need to create projects that live online and influence our digital life.

    • Interdisciplinary Collaboration

      Study and work with students in the liberal arts, social sciences, and technology to explore the relationship between design and broader social, technological, and cultural issues.

    • Real-World Insights

      Attend design events and conferences hosted by AIGA NY and the Type Directors Club, and interact with design professionals through our program lecture series.
