Graphic Design B.F.A. Design, Housing & Apparel College of Design

• Program Type: Baccalaureate • Requirements for this program are current for Spring 2017 • Required credits to graduate with this degree: 120 • Required credits within the major: 81 to 89 • Degree: Bachelor of Fine Arts

The graphic design program educates students in design thinking, design methods, design theory, creative problem solving, and visual and verbal literacy. An emphasis is placed on visual components: how humans communicate, perceive, interpret, and understand visual information. The program fosters flexibility, which enables graduates to adapt to social, cultural, and technological change in graphic design. The program's foundation is broadly based. Students begin with courses in fundamental aspects of visual studies. Upper division courses prepare them for graphic design positions in print and electronic media. An internship of 1 to 3 credits is required. Program Delivery This program is available:

• via classroom (the majority of instruction is face-to-face)

Admission Requirements Students must complete 5 courses before admission to the program. Freshman and transfer students are usually admitted to pre-major status before admission to this major. A GPA above 2.0 is preferred for the following:

• 2.50 already admitted to the degree-granting college • 2.50 transferring from another University of Minnesota college • 2.50 transferring from outside the University

Admission to pre-major status is decided by a competitive holistic review. Students must maintain an overall GPA of 2.50 during pre-major coursework. In addition, students must receive a minimum grade of C- or better in the required pre-major courses before going through portfolio review (not just a 2.50 GPA). Once students have achieved major status, they must maintain a GPA of 2.00. Students must be admitted to the pre-major status program to take most of the pre-graphic design coursework.
