Bachelor of Fine Arts - Graphic Design

The Graphic Design program at the University of Houston prepares students for a career in design through a comprehensive investigation of design practices, theories and methods. Success is fostered through individual inquiry and group collaboration to promote critical and imaginative thinking. A tight cohort within a sequenced curriculum provides content flexibility, ensuring the most innovative education within a continually shifting media environment.

Design research, interdisciplinary collaboration, professional cross-pollination, team building, community outreach, ethical inquiry and sustainable practices are all tools that position students to become top competitors in the national design job market and leaders within the profession. Engagement with the broader Houston community and its leaders gives University of Houston’s designers real-world experience and situates their practice in a larger sociocultural framework.

At the undergraduate level, emerging designers utilize these skills and approaches as they begin their careers in the field.
