Master Design — Design graphique et cultures visuelles

At Université de Strasbourg, tuition fees are 292 USD per year.

Master Design — Design graphique et cultures visuelles, offered by Universite de Strasbourg in Strasbourg, France, is a two-year master's program taught in French, with a yearly tuition of 250 EUR and studies starting in September. This track belongs to the discipline of design, with a focus on graphic design and visual culture, meaning the study of how images, typography, and visual communication shape meaning across media. Typical coursework includes typography, editorial and print design, branding and visual identity, and the theoretical study of visual culture, examining how images circulate and are interpreted across advertising, publishing, digital media, and the arts. Students usually complete practical design projects alongside more theoretical and critical coursework that situates graphic design within broader cultural and historical contexts. Because the program links design practice with the study of visual culture, students can expect training in both technical design skills, such as layout and typography, and in the critical analysis of images and visual communication more broadly. Graduates from this kind of program commonly pursue careers as graphic designers, art directors, or visual identity specialists within design studios, publishing houses, cultural institutions, or the communications departments of companies and organizations. Others move into curatorial or editorial roles connected to visual culture, or continue into further study or research on design history and visual communication. Over the two years of study, the curriculum generally builds from foundational design and visual culture coursework toward more advanced, independent design projects, often supported by a portfolio of practical work, before concluding with the master's degree, taught in French, at Universite de Strasbourg.
