Page 1 of 12 THE OVERVIEW:
Technology. Message. Identity. Our world is embedded with it. Messages. Identities. Information. And it comes in so many forms: on every television channel you flip through, every corporate report published, on the Internet, in every billboard you drive past and every package you open.
 It is the intense and ever-changing visual world we live in, and as a creative director, art director or designer, you create it every day. The Communication Design program begins with the basic study of two-dimensional design and ends in creation of a professional portfolio. You will study computer-based design, art and photo direction, typography, advertising, package design, design for electronic and interactive media. You will learn to create work that finds balance between the informative and the visually intriguing. You’ll be introduced to self-promotion, presentation and collaboration. As an advanced student, you’ll take on internships at advertising and design firms in Milwaukee and around the nation, and have the opportunity to build your portfolio with pro bono assignments from MIAD’s Visual Resources Studio. MIAD Communication Design graduates fill important positions in prestigious marketing communication firms and major corporations. Many even head their own successful design firms and advertising agencies.
