About the Faculty

The Faculty of Graphic Arts of the University of Zagreb is a public institution of higher education which organizes and conducts study courses and is engaged in scientific and expert work in the area of engineering sciences, field of graphic engineering. The Faculty is a constituent unit of the University of Zagreb, which, under the provisions of the Science and Higher Education Act and the Statute of the University, is the bearer of founding rights over the Faculty.

The study program based on the Bologna process covers three levels:

  1. Undergraduate study course
  2. Graduate study course
  3. Postgraduate study course

The Undergraduate Study Course of Graphic Engineering trains students for professional and creative tasks, scientific research and qualifies them to work independently in all segments of graphic industry. Accordingly, the students are trained to run and manage any printing system, as well as optimising costs and implement quality control within these systems.

The students who enrol into the Undergraduate Study program of Graphic Product Design are trained in designing graphic products, in developing communication criteria of graphic design and examining and optimizing graphic materials.

The Graduate Study Course of Graphic Engineering offers students further professional development and qualifies them to work independently in all segments of graphic industry. Accordingly, they are trained to run and manage any printing system, as well as optimising costs and implement quality control within these systems. Graduate M.A.s in graphic engineering engage independently in scientific research and development of all forms of graphic technology.

The Graduate Study Course of Graphic Product Design primarily encourages permanent research and supports the creative component of graphic design in the synthesis with graphic engineering. The students thus receive education in designing graphic products, examining and selecting optimal materials and developing and improving the work of designers, which can only be realised by means of enhancing the students’ awareness of the value of communication criteria of graphic design.
