Students who apply to the Graphic Design Principles DeCal are encouraged to have prior experience in Adobe programs such as Photoshop and/or Illustrator. Although this is a technical course in that students are taught extensive knowledge of the programs, the class will also cover conceptual and theoretical aspects of design such as color theory, branding, and user interface design.

At the end of the course, students will have a portfolio of work showcasing extensive knowledge on several design topics and an understanding of various elements of design.

We will be holding a mandatory info session for those interested in enrolling in this DeCal. It will be held on Thursday, January 26th at 6-7pm in 310 Jacobs (https://www.facebook.com/events/1056910001104826/). You must attend this info session in order to be considered for the course! If you absolutely cannot attend, please contact us at innod.decal@gmail.com. We will release applications directly after the info session. Within a week after applications are submitted, you will know whether or not you have been accepted into the class.
