Whether our students choose to pursue independent professional practice or become members of a creative team in design, advertising, corporate communications, education, publishing, or the non-profit sectors, they are equipped to be creatively inspired and thoughtfully analytical in addressing issues of value and meaning in their work and their lives. The BFA and MFA graphic design curricula prepares students to meet these challenges through a broad range of experiences in the development of work in typography, illustration/digital imaging, print and editorial design, information design, motion graphics, packaging, environmental design, identity design, and branding. Wherever words and images are used to present information or attract attention-in print, on websites, at a retail store or business office, in multimedia and multidisciplinary projects-today’s graphic designers are challenged to be masters of a complex cluster of aesthetic, conceptual, technological, social, strategic, and presentation skills. Faculty dedicated to exceptional teaching, together with several practicing professionals who offer instruction at the intermediate and advanced levels, prepare students to become visual communicators, critical thinkers, and creative problem solvers. Animation Career Review ranked LSU 25th among public schools and colleges (top 5 percent of schools considered) and fifth in the South (top three percent of schools considered) for graphic design. The LSU School of Art’s graphic design concentration leading to the Bachelor of Fine Arts and Master of Fine Arts is among the largest and most comprehensive in the region.
