Program Objective

  • The objective of graphic design is to introduce students to a dynamic and ever-changing area that gives them with the tools to expand their understanding and practice’s potential.
  • The program’s curriculum is unique and experimental, instilling in students the confidence to challenge established practise techniques by questioning existing and traditional practises and broadening their perspectives.
  • The programme gives students with a historical and theoretical understanding that enables them to assess impacts on and identify aspects influencing, for example, responsive qualities of digital design; all of which are valuable skills when working with significant digital graphics issues.
  • Students are also encouraged to learn about the ever-changing technological landscape.
  • We urge them to push outside of their comfort zones and attempt new things as they search for ways, such as employing new media design to attract clients while mastering the intended effect they wish to achieve with a commercial, business, or service company.
  • Additionally, the curriculum emphasises the development of entrepreneurial skills to enable students to sustain creative activity.
  • In addition, many discussions, seminars, workshops, and other chances for real-world industrial projects contribute to a well-rounded educational experience for the students.

Learning Outcomes

The BVA/B.Des. in Graphic Design aims to develop:

  • Graphic artists who have graduated from BVA show that they have gained skills in design and illustration, which help them to create effective advertisements, web pages, book covers, posters, instruction manuals, and more.
  • Their work proves their thoughtful application of theory through knowledge of concepts such as space/primaries colors, color theory, emotional intelligence/empathy, and composition.
  • They also seem to use their emotional intelligence and sense of empathy to combine certain media elements into more complex products.
  • Graduates demonstrate critical thinking skills during the planning stage of their projects by determining goals and expectations, creating inspiration boards, and taking the best features of each one to enjoy maximum effect while keeping unnecessary ones away.
  • As a designer, it is vital to communicate effectively with team members. These days, there are quite a few ways you can do that. And these aren’t just methods applicable to verbal and written forms like before – now visual art is also a part of the curriculum. So whether you’re creating posters or ads, comics, illustrations, paintings or logos, characters or models, the most important thing is that you know how to convey your message correctly, so your audience will understand what you are trying to say.
  • Think of this quote often: “The picture is worth a thousand words.”
  • Understand the design philosophy, theories, data collection, analysis, and application in a chosen study domain.
