Features

The Master’s Course in Visual Design covers a wide range of areas: from visual identity to editorial design, from information graphics to digital communication. The designer’s role is to understand and oversee all graphic and visual aspects that arise in the communication process. The study of graphic design opens up a range of job opportunities and specialized career paths.

The course explores all aspects of this multifaceted discipline, immersing students in each of the inspirational areas of graphic design. This develops students’ professional skills and enhances their technical competence. By replicating the stimulating dynamics found in a professional environment, studio classes help stimulate the right mental approach to design and fine-tune the student’s graphic design skills.

In the Master’s program in Visual Design, all the elements that make up graphic language are studied: format, layout, composition, typography and visual elements.
