RISD'S SUMMER INSTITUTE FOR GRAPHIC DESIGN STUDIES
20.05.2007 News
Providence (United States) - The Summer Institute for Graphic Design Studies
(SIGDS) is an unparalleled opportunity for students and professionals
from numerous disciplines to participate in an extensive array of
concentrated two-week credit-bearing courses for undergraduate and
graduate students, as well as shorter (2,3 or 5 day) intensive
non-credit advanced and professional workshops. Instruction is provided
by professors of RISD's Graphic Design Department as well as visiting
international graphic design professionals. RISD's renowned,
comprehensive design studios and high-tech facilities, among the very
best in the country, complement a curriculum that is both technically
advanced and conceptually innovative.
The SIGDS curriculum is especially attentive to addressing the monumental changes that have occurred as a result of the globalization of visual communications. Its courses seek to aid participants in the challenging undertaking of improving the way we communicate visually. The individual offerings range from those with little emphasis on technology to those (for which computer literacy is a prerequisite) much more dependent on technology, but all invite students and other aspiring graphic designers to join with educators and professionals as they create exciting, well-considered graphic design.
SIGDS two-week courses are intended for students at all levels of experience, including absolute beginners.
This year, our newest addition is Professor Don Chang's 3-day workshop "Identity + Branding".
