The Visual Communications major teaches students the effective application of the fundamental elements and principles of visual communication design. The program focuses on the exploration of creative solutions in communication using digital media processes, typography, form development and information design with print and time based media.

The goal of the Visual Communications program is to graduate thoroughly trained, competent designers educated in traditional and contemporary media, grounded by historical and cultural knowledge, along with a desire to explore the spiritual nature of design as an extension of their faith.
