The Master of Fine Arts: Emphasis in Graphic Design at UMD may be earned full or part-time, in three years of graduate study in design. Within a liberal arts setting, our program explores each individual's educational,artistic and professional strengths. Expanding the boundaries of conventional design education, it includes the following areas of study: new media; motion graphics; sound art; book arts; design in the public realm; experience design; typographic design,  
design theory, and preparation for college teaching. We are equally committed to academic study and studio practice. Our program draws on an international faculty of designers and artists recognized for the quality of their work and experience.

All program details, including application requirements and granting procedures are described fully in the Student Handbook, which may be downloaded here
