Graphic Design - Multimedia and Web Graphics Concentration 2701 Occupational, A.A.S.


A Two-Year Program Leading to the A.A.S. or A.S. Degree

Multimedia and Web Design are the creative union of graphics, animation, audio, video and text to produce an informative, eye-catching, visual multimedia or web presentation. This program will offer a select group of motivated and skilled students the opportunity to prepare themselves to enter a growing market of production houses and business groups to produce original marketing, training and business multimedia presentations and media rich web graphics. Students will be prepared to enter this challenging field with a solid background using state-of-the-art equipment and industry standard production software. This program will nurture students’ individual development of originality and technical skills and stress the strong design elements which today’s market demands. By including courses from both the Graphic Design Department and the Broadcasting Department or the Computer Programming Department, students will gain an invaluable blend of design and production skills from both fields. Vincennes University is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Art & Design.
