Program Outcomes
1) Creative Thinking and Problem Solving: Students can develop their creative thinking skills to generate innovative and effective solutions to design problems. Critical Thinking and Analysis Skills: Through critical thinking and analytical skills, they can evaluate design challenges from different perspectives and determine the most appropriate solution pathways. Research, Information Gathering, and Analysis Skills: By conducting research, gathering information, and analyzing data, they enhance their ability to improve design processes and solve problems effectively.
2) Design Principles and Technical Knowledge: Students learn fundamental design principles (composition, balance, contrast, harmony, rhythm, etc.) to create successful designs from both a professional and aesthetic perspective. They gain the ability to apply design principles such as color theory, typography, hierarchy, and grid systems to achieve effective visual communication. Technical knowledge and skills enable students to solve technical problems encountered during the design process and to execute their projects to professional standards.
3) Digital and Print Design: Students learn to create graphic designs for digital media. They can work in various digital project areas such as digital illustration, web design, user interface (UI) design, and motion graphics. In the field of publishing graphics, they can specialize in various projects such as brochures, catalogs, book covers, magazines, and newspapers. The ability to design for different types of media enhances students' opportunities to find employment in a wide range of fields.
4) Use of Design Software: Students learn to effectively use graphic design software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, XD, and others. Proficiency in these programs accelerates students' involvement in professional processes within the industry. Their technical skills enable them to present their projects in formats suitable for digital and print media environments.
5) Portfolio Development: Students create a professional portfolio that they can use for job applications after graduation. Portfolio projects provide students with opportunities to showcase their skills and projects, helping them attract employers' attention. During the portfolio preparation process, students receive training in project management, time planning, and presentation techniques.
6) Communication and Presentation Skills: Students learn to effectively present and defend their designs. This skill provides a significant advantage in job interviews, client meetings, and project presentations. Through oral and written communication skills, they can articulate design processes and projects clearly and comprehensibly. Their communication skills enable successful collaborations and teamwork on projects that require cooperation.
7) Knowledge of Art and Design History: Students gain knowledge about art and design history, understanding the origins and evolution of modern design. Their ability to analyze historical and cultural contexts enables them to produce deeper and more meaningful content in their designs. By learning about significant movements, artists, and designers in art and design history, students are better equipped to understand current design trends and potential future developments.
