Parkland Graphic Design Curriculum


The graphic design program is a projects-driven curriculum. Through portfolio-building assignments, students learn how to solve real-world visual communication problems. Students graduate from Parkland College with a portfolio that is creative, professional, and demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship. Students also gain experience through our internship program.

In all of our classes, instructors make a concerted effort to introduce students to a wide variety of award-winning work by influential designers providing a context for development and growth. Students are introduced to the world of photography, illustration, typography, color, print production, and creative copywriting. Students learn that inspiration comes from many sources and that the creative process is a methodology that works.

For a complete list of graphic design courses and course descriptions, please see the

The Parkland College Catalog also lists the course sequences for the 2-year Graphic Design AAS degree and the AA Graphic Design transfer degree.
