Introduction
The Design Studies Minor is composed of 2 GUR courses (large lecture format), an upper division design history course, and four lecture/lab courses providing a foundation in drawing for design; 2D design, type and color; 3D design; motion graphics; and principles of interaction design.
Why Consider a Design Studies Minor?
The Design Studies Minor can complement or enhance the value of a major through acquired familiarity with historical, conceptual, and technical aspects of the design field. Students develop foundational skills in visual form and gain insight into the culture and practices of the profession.
