Cornish Programs
Design
Our Design program is founded on a simple idea: Design can make the world better. Whether you become an Illustrator or Animator, a Graphic Designer or Game Art Designer, an Experience Designer or Interaction Designer, your work can make the complex understandable—it can create beauty, delve into ugliness, inspire people, calm or confront them. Your work can create worlds, or help us all live in this one. Design can make the world better—for everyone.


What To Expect
BFA
in Design
By the end of your second year, you’ll decide which BFA degree you’ll go for: a BFA in Design, a BFA in Game Art, a BFA in Illustration, a BFA in Animation, a BFA in Game Art, and a A BFA in Interaction Design. You can also add a Minor in Game Art or a Minor in Experience Design. Depending on your degree path, you may design logos, zines, or posters, create 2D and 3D art for games, user interfaces for app development, websites, and VR/AR. But you’ll also have a chance to develop your skills in drawing, lettering, type design, bookbinding, letterpress, screen printing and lithography.
