This graduate concentration is part of the Master of Fine Arts in studio art program.
Very on brand
With a graphic design concentration, your MFA terminal degree will have you often positioned for roles that require more than just technical execution. The opportunities will seek someone like you who can perform high-level conceptual thinking, brand strategy and the ability to guide a creative team.
While the degree provides the credentials, your portfolio remains the most critical asset. This program will help you "level up" that portfolio from a collection of client tasks to a showcase of your unique voice and complex, conceptual problem-solving.
