    Objectives

    The BA Communication Design degree at the Lusófona University aims to train creative and technical designers in the sectors of communication, graphic arts, industrial, equipment, space and environments.
    The aim is the maximum valorization and development of the students' conceptual, creative and technical skills, in order to satisfy market demands, as well as to suggest more coherent alternatives to existing problems. We have created, thus, a pedagogy that aims to develop students¿ ability to respond to design problems, relating creative thinking with logical analysis, and reporting to the framework required by today's world, respect for the environment and the human dimension (in its various forms), in the search for a more integrative and habitable world for all, using the new technologies and materials available.
    It is a design department that critically challenges a discipline in profound transitions, exploring a variety of pedagogical models. Working as a continuous workshop with a network of leading professionals, researchers and educators, this BA aims to expand the design discipline in collaboration with our research centre, as well as local and international partners.

    Who should apply

    Students interested in developing a career in the design, arts and cultural sectors, but also the hybrid practices the degree promotes, seeing these as connecting elements.

    Knowledge, abilities and skills to be acquired

    The BA Communication Design degree at Lusófona University wants to frame the development of skills in the knowledge of the history of art and design, as well as in the tools, methods and techniques of the arts and human sciences, which will enable design graduates at this University to answer contemporary challenges: effective, sustainable and critical use of conceptual and technical resources, a politically inclusive design perspective, with concerns for social alterity, as well as preservation and innovation in the management of the planet's natural resources and its complex systems and ecosystems.

    Equipments and venues

    The Communication Design degree course is located at DELLI, which is a central space for our program, working as an educational hybrid model of production, discussion and sharing. A variety of tools and production media are available to students: 3D printing, laser cutting, video projection, plotters, risography and digital copiers that coexist with multiple other printing techniques, such as screen printing, mimeography or etching, as well as printing with movable type. Most of the project classes take place here, and it is also the space where parallel programs take place, including those organized by students, such as film and reading sessions.

    Further Studies

    The conclusion of the BA in Communication Design Degree at Lusófona University enables the possibility of pursuing studies with Masters and PhD degrees in Design and Arts, and related areas.

    Career

    The BA Communication Design Degree at the Lusófona University aims to train designers who are critically prepared to develop creative and technical planning and management strategies in a broad and hybrid dimension of the expanded design field, in sectors ranging from communication, illustration, drawing, product design, tangible design, interaction (UI/UX) or environmental design, cooperation in multidisciplinary teams in the multiple areas of knowledge of the sciences and humanities, speculative and critical design.

    Thus, the employing areas of the designers graduated by Lusófona University are

    Communication and Image departments of companies and public organizations; Commercial, Design and Marketing departments of companies and public organizations; Design, Communication and Image departments of central and local Public Administration (Municipalities, City Councils, etc. ) or organizations with community relevance (associations, foundations, sports clubs, NGOs- non-governmental organizations); Design Offices; Advertising Agencies; Public Relations Agencies; Press Advisory Offices; Web Page Development and Web Content Management Companies; Consulting Companies in Design and in Communication and Image; Teaching Institutions (secondary and higher education) and research institutions in Design and Communication Sciences.

    Research

    The Center for Other Worlds (COW) is an interdisciplinary research centre for design and art, based at Lusófona University. It focuses on the development of perspectives that are not dominant nor imposed by the design discipline¿through criticism, speculation and collaboration with various disciplines such as curating, architecture, visual arts, ecology and political theory¿having in design an unifying element but rejecting hierarchies between them. The centre¿s name makes a reference to the concept of otherness, thereby aiming at challenging universal visions of design and art. The centre¿s core mission is therefore inscribed in its name.
