Description:Print media is all around us, and has defined how we communicate for over a thousand years. As a form of visual art, it includes silkscreen printing, etching, lithography, relief printing, letterpress, bookbinding, digital printing, and risograph printing. And with countless new innovations and technologies, this discipline is only becoming more creative and multidisciplinary.

The Print Media program covers both the history of print media and its traditional practices, as well as the new and exciting possibilities for the art form that exist today. You'll take a mix of hands-on, immersive studio courses and critical studies that will provide a strong theoretical foundation. In your studio courses, you'll have ample opportunity to explore printmaking techniques and develop your own unique artistic practice using our specialized equipment and facilities.
