Create what the world Sees next

Graphic design is more than art. It's communication with purpose. As a designer, you will learn how to create powerful visual content that informs, inspires, and influences. Through visual hierarchy and creative layout design, you will master the art of combining typography, imagery, and graphics to tell stories that captivate audiences and drive action.

At Culver-Stockton, you will learn to design with strategy, solve problems, communicate ideas, and guide users, all though visual experiences that both engage and persuade.

The C-SC Difference

At Culver-Stockton, creativity meets real-world application. You will sharpen your skills in creative problem solving, independent thinking, and rapid design execution through hands-on projects that mirror professional work. Using the latest industry hardware and software, you will apply your ideas across branding, social media, packaging, print, web, digital, outdoor, and even 3D design.

Join our active art club to collaborate, showcase your work, and connect with other creatives. As you advance, you will have the flexibility to specialize in areas that expand your career opportunities, all while learning from award-winning, exhibiting artists who bring real-world insight and inspiration into every class.

The experience you get working with professors and the resources available really makes an amazing experience. You get a really great one-on-one connection with your professors and the small class sizes. The professors care about you and are available for you to ask questions and get help, which is something you don’t get at a lot of colleges.
