Certificate Program
The Visual Communication Certificate Program has been created to provide a working knowledge of the basics of the Visual Communication field and to use that knowledge to immediately enter the workforce. The visual Communication Certificate requires a completion of 18 hours of study (six courses of 3 hours each). Four of these six courses are in the Art Degree Program. This program introduces basic, introductory level skills in these areas: photography, digital photography, two-dimensional design, computer arts, photographic lighting techniques, and portfolio review.
