48 MonthsThe B.Des. in Graphic Design program at UPES School of Design prepares students for careers in graphic design and visual communication in an increasingly technology-driven world. The curriculum builds a strong foundation in image-making, typography, layout systems, branding, design history, research methods, photography, web and digital design, and graphics technology, balancing conceptual thinking, visual sensitivity, and technical proficiency.
A key strength of the program is its forward-looking approach to emerging technologies, including Artificial Intelligence, which is positioned as a creative collaborator rather than a replacement. Students are trained to critically engage with AI tools, understanding both their potential and limitations while maintaining authorship, ethical responsibility, and design intent at the core of their practice.
The program also emphasises sustainable design and responsible innovation, encouraging sustainable thinking across materials, processes, and communication strategies. Graduates emerge not only with strong technical and creative skills but also with the mindset to lead, innovate, and craft meaningful visual narratives in an evolving design landscape.
