Overview
We offer a master degree in Graphic Design at California Institute of the Arts CalArts. Individual critique within a communal studio structure helps designers to develop a personal direction and agenda, intended to influence work beyond graduate school. The first-year curriculum consists of a sequence of weekly seminars in which research and studio projects are examined and discussed.
Key Features
- The second year in residence is dedicated to developing and realizing a major thesis project that contributes to—and challenges—the graphic design community at large.
- In each of the two years, graduate students deepen and refine their work through a set of required and elective courses covering subjects such as type design, web design, typography, motion graphics, design theory and design history.
