Advertising Coordinator: Dr. Pat Spirou The Advertising major at Southern New Hampshire University was developed in response to student demand and the growing number of career options available to students in this $445 billion-a-year industry. The program combines elements from the business, advertising, marketing and communication fields and allows students the flexibility to tailor the major to their areas of interest. Students may choose between a focus in business and a focus in the arts and sciences. Both programs require the same major courses and offer the same related electives. This program is the only one of its kind in New England that offers students dual tracks. Graduates will be well prepared to enter the advertising industry in the creative and management divisions of corporations and agencies.

Coordinator: Prof. Harry Umen The mission of the SNHU Graphic Design major is to equip students to be professional graphic designers competent in the latest design technologies and educated in the cultural contexts of the liberal arts. The SNHU Graphic Design major will be the most technologically oriented B.A. graphics program in the region. Its graduates will be equipped with high level skills using professional equipment that will make them competitive in the marketplace. At the same time, its grounding in liberal education and the humanities will give students a cultural frame of reference that will enrich them both professionally and personally. Their liberal arts background will prepare them for undertaking “real-world� visual communication projects that demand an understanding of a broad range of content. Professional graphic designers turn ideas into visual statements. The Graphic Design major will be the program of choice for students who have artistic talent or interests and also seek meaningful creative employment upon graduation.
