Graphic Design (Major)

Graphic design is one of the most powerful forms of communication.

Design is commercial, social, public, and political. It shapes the meaning and impact of books, magazines, apps, games, websites, and countless other media. Our program shapes designers to think conceptually and apply technical skills in all forms of design practice.

As a Graphic Design major at MICA, you will master a comprehensive slate of visual problem-solving tools for professional leaders working in branding, UI/UX, packaging, spatial design, publication design, and typeface design, among others. As a result, you will gain the ability to think and make critically and to thrive as a professional designer.

Alumni Stories

“I am immensely grateful for the opportunities and connections I made at MICA, where I cultivated my skills and passion for design.”

“I used some of my senior thesis projects for my application to UP/Start, MICA’s campus-wide entrepreneurship competition, where I became one of the top three prize winners. Through opportunities at MICA like UP/Start, I received mentorship for my business—mentorship that provided invaluable information and advice that was not readily available online.” Hadassah Dowuona ’20
