Student Profile: Emily Kunz, M.F.A. '16

“The [M.F.A. in] Integrated Design program offered me the opportunity to tailor my studies to fill in the gaps in my visual communications knowledge. I came into the program with a background in print and photography and left with the ability to build websites and create a user experience, capture and edit video, and create motion graphics to tell dynamic stories. This interdisciplinary integration was undoubtedly the reason I was able to land my job as a lead designer for the University of California, Davis. I also teach graphic design to online web design students. The UBalt M.F.A. program has given me the vocabulary to identify, explain and solve communication problems I see in my students’ work. My thesis, an interactive cross-media documentary, showcases the skills gained in the M.F.A. program and the aesthetic I developed in my time at UBalt.”
