Bachelor in Graphics

Graphics at Vistula University, in Warszawa, Poland, is a bachelor's degree taught in English over 3 years (6 semesters). The program sits within the university's offering in Computer Engineering, Graphic Design, and Architecture, developed against a backdrop of a dynamically growing art market in Poland and abroad and a reconstruction of value in the advertising market. Students with an interest in art and artistic ability can develop that flair through bachelor's-level study in graphic design, gaining practical knowledge and skills that lead toward roles such as graphic designer in the advertising sector or toward developing artistic projects independently. The program responds to growing demand for graphic designers competent in advanced tools, including specialised computer software, and situates students within the fast-moving digital revolution, combining traditional artistic techniques with advanced methods based on photographic and digital workshop practice. As much as 70 percent of classes are practical in character, with professional placements and outdoor painting forming an integral part of the studies. Students gain skills that allow them to make conscious, deliberate use of artistic techniques, developing both personal artistic direction and the competences employers look for. Over the course of study, students can focus on artistic graphic design, mastering workshop techniques in printing, drawing, painting, illustration, and photography. Graduates of bachelor's programs in graphic design more broadly go on to work in advertising agencies, design studios, publishing, and digital media, or continue toward master's-level study in fine arts or design.
