New York Institute of Technology: Graphic Design Major Recently Updated

NYIT prioritizes hands-on learning and creates opportunities for success for every student, not matter their interests or backgrounds. NYIT has four campuses and across these campuses students take part in research, internships, projects, and civic engagement. More specifically, in the Graphic Design, B.F.A. program, students produce work that demonstrates artistic expression, technical proficiency, and well-informed conceptual ideas.

Graphic Design students take courses in areas from advertising and editorial to information graphics, logos and branding, motion graphics, packaging, typography, and web and interactive design and emerge with a portfolio of work that demonstrates professional readiness to future employers.

Students gain proficiency with the latest applications and technology—including Adobe Creative Cloud, 3-D printers, and laser cutters—and how to use them in the creation, reproduction, and distribution of visual messages.

Through internships with local agencies and design firms and hands-on projects (both individual and collaborative), you’ll prepare to tackle the real-world challenges of being a career-ready graphic designer.
