Founded in 1839, Boston University is an internationally recognized institution of higher education and research, and the fourth-largest independent university in the U.S. The College of Fine Arts offers professional training in the arts in conservatory-style environments for undergraduate and graduate students complemented by a liberal arts curriculum for undergraduate students. The Graphic Design program is traditionally-based with a modern orientation, and is supported by a stellar faculty. As working professionals, faculty provide honest real world insight, countless avenues for creative inspiration, and insider knowledge of design studios, thoroughly preparing students for post-collegiate life. Graphic design students learn photography from the darkroom to critical evaluation of the print, study typography as an element of design, and learn to relate 3-D graphics to architectural and package design. Students also participate in interdisciplinary projects across the campus, collaborating with students from other schools and allowing them to apply design problem solving in contemporary practice.
