The graphic and media design (GMD) program at Alfred State is different from other graphic design programs. It is designed to meet the current needs for design in a time-based and screen-filled world. From cellphones to video billboards, new venues are demanding movement and interaction. This program is built to take advantage of new and ever-changing technologies and remain at the leading edge of design. Currently, designers are asked to be able to design for print and screen. This requires new thinking, new versatility, and a new type of creative problem solver. This new versatile designer is what this program is designed to produce.
