Graphic Design AOS

Graphic Design

The AOS Graphic Design major within Pratt's Associate Degree Program is a career track professional program with an emphasis on both traditional skills and new technologies. Graphic Design students develop skills and proficiency in such concentrations as Advertising, Publication, and Package Design, along with a proficiency in all software applications and studio fundamentals such as Typography, Visualization, and Drawing.

Our Graphic Design faculty comprises some of New York’s finest designers, intensely interested in student’s artistic and professional development. To enhance this interest, AOS Program classes are small, allowing for increased student-faculty contact.
