|  Looking to grow a deep portfolio and skill set for a career in publication design or branding/advertising?
The Master's
Certificate program is a platform for success, enabling you to develop a rounded portfolio in print design or brand identity, and branch out into Web design, digital imaging, digital photography, or game art.
As a Master's Certificate program student, you'll complete the Foundation level, developing technical and creative skills in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. Digital imaging, illustration, and layout projects prepare you to work creatively with color, typography, composition, and visual identity.
At the Master's level, students choose two professional concentrations. One concentration must be in graphic design: either Print Design or Brand Identity. In the second concentration, you can deepen your graphic design portfolio or explore a related art/design field: Web Design, Digital Imaging, Digital Photography, or Game Art.
Imagine your portfolio with your digital photography or 3D artwork alongside your ads, logos, and packaging work. Upon completing the Master's Level, you'll present a body of work to a portfolio review panel for feedback. The focus of the class is to help you present your work effectively to potential employers.
Up for the challenge? Get critique, feedback, and mentoring from an industry-leading faculty throughout your program. Draw on a resourceful student services team for advisement and support. Watch your portfolio of work evolve on your MyGallery page and network with peers in the student community DesignSessions.
