Graphic Design

SCAD's graphic design department leads the way in preparing students for careers in the 21st century creative economy. While rooted in traditional design foundations, graphic design students learn how to design for emerging technology and media through courses in form and space, art history and fluid design for the Web and mobile applications.


World-changing design

Teaching students about emerging technology is a reflection of the central tenet of graphic design at SCAD: perspective. The diverse faculty - from New York to California, Belgrade, China, India, Iran, Jamaica, Libya, South America and more - brings perspectives that inform students' understanding of design and the impact their work has on the world.

Courses emphasize sustainability, environmental protection, social equity, cultural vitality and economic well-being. SCAD prepares students to solve tomorrow's creative challenges so they can change the world.

Graphic design is offered in Atlanta, Hong Kong, Savannah and online via eLearning.
