Study Graphic Design In London

Study Graphic Design in London
May 19-June 4, 2010

Eastern Michigan University’s Art Department in cooperation with the office of Academic Programs Abroad, is pleased to offer a 3 week study program at London College of Communication in London, England.

EMU and other institutions have an opportunity to learn more about British and European graphic design with London College of Communication (http://www.lcc.arts.ac.uk) faculty and students as well as British design professionals, studio, office and museum visits, studio projects, and a lecture program in order to contextualize the contemporary cultural and social landscape.

Projects will be based around students gaining an understanding of the historical, technological and contemporary context of graphic design in Britain. Issues of contemporary design practice will be addressed through masterclass projects with practitioners noted in their specialist fields, such as letterpress and visits to venues related to the themed projects.

Early applications are due Feb. 15, 2010. Applications are available at: www.emich.edu/abroad/graphicdesign/
