COMM 105 - Design as Communication

Institution:

Philadelphia University

Subject:

Description:

Students learn to apply basic principles and elements of design as they relate to communication. Through a study of found examples of visual design and by applying design concepts to their own work, students learn to explain how heirachy of information, sequence of delivery, and juxtaposition of type and image all build toward audience trust and understanding of the visual experience. In addition, students will explore wider implications of considering design as communication. (Not available to majors from the School of Design and Media or the School of Architecture.)
