Course Description:The purpose of the Undergraduate Graphic Design Internship is to ensure that students acquire an understanding of how the profession of graphic design is practiced under the mentorship of an experienced designer in a studio environment. In the course of their internship, students are exposed to the daily processes involved in running a design studio: research and idea generation; preparation of presentations; attending client meetings; vendor selection and coordination; and production of final deliverables (print, motion and/or web-based design).Section Description:This division-wide course will provide students with essential business skills useful for the design professional who is navigating a career path. We will focus first on the external industry landscape as we study the competitive and resource factors that contribute to the creation and capture of value.  Internally, we will learn business concepts related to how modern companies hire and employ resources to optimize their  success. Related is the topic of social good and what the public demands of companies to add social responsibility components to their companies.   These core areas known as business (internal) and corporate (external) strategy will provide students a sharpened picture of where they see themselves initially participating and thriving within the work environment.
