Graphic and Media Design (506) Associate of Applied Science Degree

Purpose: The Graphic and Media Design curriculum provides educational foundation in the creation of effective visual design solutions through the application of design theories and principles. Students will learn to demonstrate mastery of specific technical, conceptual, and critical abilities within computer graphics and the mixed media. Students will understand the production process utilized in industry standard studios including print design, photographic design, graphic design, video production, motion graphic design and web design. 

Transfer: Applied degrees (AAS/AAA) are designed to prepare students for entry into the workforce. Under formal articulation agreements with some four-year colleges and universities, students enrolled in a career/technical program who wish to pursue baccalaureate studies may be able to transfer selected courses into related programs at senior institutions. Students interested in pursuing transfer options should consult with a Virginia Peninsula advisor early in their academic career and consult the transfer guide for the intended transfer institution and major.
