The Master in Graphic Design program is based on the development of specific projects on the different disciplines of graphic design, which allows cultivating a broad knowledge and obtaining an advanced perception of graphic design.

The objective of the Master is to provide students with the necessary tools to navigate the complexity of contemporary graphic design from a global, comprehensive and holistic perspective.

In the Master the tools and methodologies are provided to the students and they are encouraged to carry out unique projects developing their own visual language. The program places special emphasis on typography as a fundamental and structural discipline of graphic design, addressing it from the most traditional aspect (identity) to the most innovative (digital) through the communicative (editorial).

It is a graphic design program conceived with a general, non-instrumental vocation, to deepen and broaden knowledge in graphic design at the hands of an exceptional group of professors.
