The minor in Visual Communication and Social Media enables students to refine their skills in creating, analyzing, and deploying visual communication. Students will be challenged to think critically about the capacity for visual communication to transcend traditional modes, such as written and verbal communication, while carefully considering how to effectively align the mode of communication with message and audience. Particular emphasis is given to the intersection of visual communication with the fields of marketing and advertising.
