Universities for Graphic Design/ Visual Communication?

How do you differentiate between communication design, visual communication design, visual communication and graphic design?

  • I am currently trying to write a chapter in my thesis on my field of study and find it hard to find theory that clearly defines that is explicitly differentiates the relationships between the four terms. I am also interested in hearing how you use those terms.

  • Answer:

Communication Design is a broader term for graphic design that covers communication theories and practices in addition to just graphic design which is the practical and technical application of visual language.
