Design Studies in Applied Design and Expression Minor provides a basis of design terminology, design processes, design business, and design computer applications. Students will learn how to critically analyze and evaluate design(s) and develop their own aesthetic. Students apply design principles to design solutions using industry specific software (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc). Students complete a summer internship for this minor and they critically reflect on their internship learning experience as it relates to professional contexts of their chosen major and intended career/business field through a written reflection paper after completing the required minimum internship.
