Start on a path of excellence in Graphic Design for culture and entertainment with IED Roma's Master's Program in Graphic Design.
This Master's Program offers an experience dedicated to the different dimensions of graphic design, supervised by professionals of the highest level in constant dialogue with the extraordinary city of Rome, a place where the signs of every era have been stratified over time.
You will explore visual communication from the typeface to the city. From designing the building blocks of the graphics - the characters of a font - to the development of a community communication project for city spaces, including communication campaigns for the creative industry, artists' books and publishing projects.
During a true immersion in the world of graphics, you will acquire advanced technical skills and discover the power of graphics to mould ideas and emotions. Through intensive workshops, you will learn how to handle graphic languages with an in-depth view encompassing creativity, art direction and communication dynamics and to develop complex projects and integrated campaigns in various media.
