BDes in Graphic Design

Secondary records are required for both first-year and transfer international students, but first-year international students who completed a SRAR do not need to provide them until after they accept an offer of admission.

Animation or video: must be between 15 and 90 seconds. Original Poster Design Objective: Design an original poster that communicates an important topic. An effective poster should combine text and image to attract attention, appeal to the intended audience, communicate a message to the viewer, and imprint itself upon their memory. Topic: Select a subject related to a particular sustainable issue about which you feel strongly (e.g., Energy, Pollution, Deforestation, Hunger, Health Care, Education, Racism, Animal Rights, etc.). For more ideas, you can explore the areas of sustainability on the UN Sustainable Development Goals webpage. Medium: You may execute your design either digitally or in traditional media. You may use a computer program (Photoshop, Inkscape, InDesign, etc.) or create your poster using traditional approaches like drawing, painting, collage, photomontage, cut paper – it’s up to you. Required Visual Element: Include a circle as a specific element in your poster design. How you incorporate this element into your design is up to you, but it must be present.

Single Image: no larger than 8.5” x 11” and under 10 Megabytes.. Submit three (3) samples of your best work from the past two years. These pieces do not need to be created specifically for this submission; however, it is important to show work that represents your current skills and experiences. Visuals may be graphic design or images from related disciplines such as photography, illustration, drawing, painting, reproductions of 3-D media, time-based work, animations, ceramics, tattoos, fiber, fashion, collage, sculpture, installation, or other visual media. Comments (Optional): When you submit your work in SlideRoom, you may include a 100-word statement providing context for your pieces.

Write a brief statement (up to 1,500 words, 10 point font, 1.15 space) that explains why you are interested in graphic design as a discipline, and what you hope to do with it in the world.
