Graphic Design Masters Theses

RISD’s graduate program in Graphic Design prepares students for professional practice by emphasizing the roles of social context, media and aesthetics in the production of visible language systems. As a reflection of the discipline itself, the program encourages a nimble and intelligent response to constant change and burgeoning technology, while building a strong foundation of formal, aesthetic and analytical knowledge.

Individual thesis investigation is central to the final year of MFA study and culminates in the comprehensive presentation of work representing an original voice for visual and verbal expression of design thinking. The thesis should be equal parts exploration, explanation, provocation and contribution. Guest critics participate throughout the year and in the year-end thesis review, which offers a forum for critical dialogue focused on each student’s contribution to the field of graphic design. All MFA candidates also submit a written thesis and as a group participate in the RISD Graduate Thesis Exhibition , a large-scale public show held annually.

How to write the perfect design dissertation

Tutors and students from top design colleges share their advice.

graphic design dissertation examples pdf

Studying design is about crafting a great design portfolio that will wow potential employers, right? Well, yes. But don't discount the importance of astute creative thinking, and expressing yourself eloquently through the written word. In short, your design dissertation matters.

"I don't believe that design students should be focused entirely on portfolio work," argues Myrna MacLeod , programme leader for Graphic Design at Edinburgh Napier University. "They should also be able to demonstrate an interest in the contexts that underpin their work, and the histories and connections that have informed our practice."

  • 5 top tips for graduate designers

"Think of a dissertation as an opportunity, not a burden," urges Craig Burston , Graphic and Media Design course leader at London College of Communication (LCC). "It gives us visually-minded people an opportunity to demonstrate that we too can construct arguments and distil complex notions." 

As Burston points out, this is not just an academic exercise: the power of persuasion is often key to success as a commercial designer. "Clients seek clarity, and project concepts or proposals need to be put into context," he says.

Read on to discover some top tips from leading tutors and their students for nailing your design dissertation…

01. Treat it like a design brief

"A great dissertation should be a designed artefact, and portfolio-worthy in its own right," says Burston. And like a design brief, it should be about solving a problem: "Make sure it has clearly stated aims, strong focus, and doesn't lack opinion or rhetoric," he adds.

  • Best laptops for graphic design

"The value of a designed dissertation as a portfolio piece is that it's a holistic view of the individual," agrees Sarah James , senior lecturer in Visual Communication at Arts University Bournemouth (AUB). 

"It shows, type, editorial, research and aesthetic skill, as well as the personal interests and convictions of the individual."

For her AUB dissertation on responsive type, Maarit Koobas conducted an extensive research process

James identifies AUB student Maarit Koobas , who investigated responsive type in both her dissertation and final project, as a particularly strong example of this. "Her design version was one of the most authentic, restrained and elegantly expressive I have ever received," she enthuses.

Koobas conducted a huge amount of initial research into both the contexts in which responsive type can be seen – such as advertising, product design, science and material cultures – and the theories behind its analysis, including semiotics, philosophy and politics. "Creating and analysing ideas, before they end up in your portfolio, is what design is all about," argues Koobas.

02. Write about your passion

"To develop essay questions, AUB students are asked to consider what they love, hate or are puzzled by in their practice – essentially, what moves them," says James. 

"A poor dissertation is inauthentically chosen for ease as opposed to interest," she adds. "It rambles and blusters, using complex language to mask insufficient research." 

"You can tell a mile off when the writer isn't interested," agrees Burston. "How can you expect the reader to care about it if you don't? Write about something that reflects your interests, focus and direction. I've read fascinating dissertations on topics as diverse as patterns in nature, and Brutalist car parks. Make me interested in what interests you."

Research by Napier graduate Fiona Winchester on typography in graphic novels

For Edinburgh Napier graduate Fiona Winchester , this topic turned out to be typography in graphic novels. "I love reading them, but I think people still don't take them seriously as an art form, which is a shame," she says. For her dissertation, she conducted qualitative interviews using modified pages with and without imagery (shown above). 

Her advice is simple: "Narrow down your idea to be as precise as possible. The smaller your question, the easier it is to research and try to answer it."

If you're struggling to get the ball rolling on the actual writing process, Winchester advocates starting with whichever bit you have ideas for. "If you're stuck, it's so much easier to write in whatever order it comes to you, and then edit it into a dissertation, than to try write straight through from beginning to end," she insists.

03. Don't be afraid to talk to people

"I always think my students get the most out of the new streams of knowledge they find from talking to people," says McLeod. "It breaks down barriers and allows them to find answers to problems. Hopefully they will adopt that approach when designing for people also."

In some cases, this can involve interviewing your design heroes. "Students are very surprised when they send a question to Stefan Sagmeister , Milton Glaser or Michael Wolff and they reply with the most precious nugget of knowledge," smiles McLeod. 

But remember: it's your dissertation, so don't get lazy and expect your interview subject to do all the heavy lifting.

Kaori Toh's CSM dissertation on Mapping as a Creative Agency: Revelations and Speculations in the Age of Infrastructure

In other cases, it could be as simple as asking friends or family to help proofread. "It is quite daunting writing such a large body of text," admits Kaori Toh , a recent graduate from Central Saint Martins, whose dissertation explored the politics of design and technology.

"I often felt I'd get lost in all that text and research," she confesses. "Therefore, I would often send my drafts to a couple of friends to have them look through, and keep my writing cohesive."

04. Reflect on your design practice 

Most of all, dissertations are an opportunity to reflect on, and develop, your creative process as a designer. "Ultimately, it's your job to make your work relevant and credible, and the dissertation helps you learn how to do this," adds Burston. 

Of course, writing doesn't always come easily to visually minded people – and Burston highlights the fact that dyslexia is not uncommon amongst designers. 

"You're not on your own – in our profession, quite the opposite in fact – so do seek academic support, and just enjoy thinking and writing about 'stuff' that informs your practice," is his advice.

Entitled New Faces, Tom Baber's thesis at LCC discusses the craft of type design in the 21st century, inspired by his own experience creating a working typeface: Elephant Grotesk

One of Burston's stand-out students from this year, Tom Baber , welcomed support from the university to help with his dyslexia. Baber's dissertation focused on type design, and particularly the extent to which the longwinded design process is worth the effort, compared to using an existing typeface.

"I saw it as an opportunity to approach other type designers and see what they thought. Turns out I'm not the first to ask the question," he smiles. "Writing my dissertation helped me change from a 'maker' mentality to a 'designer' mentality, and be more critical of my ideas."

Graphic Design Dissertation Sample: A Case Study

Topic: Mobile Application Development Processes: Challenges and Best Practices

Although the market for mobile devices has expanded quickly, there are still few research projects focused on the process of developing mobile applications. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the existing approaches and difficulties encountered in the creation of mobile applications. To strengthen, evaluate, and upgrade the process' effectiveness, it also checks for optimal methods.

Introduction

The article seeks to provide readers with a greater knowledge of the development of mobile applications process currently used by mobile developers all around the world, as well as the different problems and difficulties it presents. The following three questions were sought out of the mobile devices research and development community via an online survey: 

1) What are the current methods used for developing mobile applications? 

2) What problems and difficulties come up in building mobile applications?

 3) What are the most effective methods that different companies have implemented and recommended to lessen the difficulties that may arise during the early stages of development?

Literature Review

The process through which apps are created for small, low-power handheld devices is known as mobile application development (MAD). Hardware, software, and communication are the three areas into which the major traits and capabilities that set a mobile version apart from a traditional desktop app can be divided. The fundamental issues with mobile computing, including shape factors & input from user's technology, ergonomics & interaction between user's design, and choice of implementation technology, have only recently been identified and published. Research Approach

To get useful information about the methods used in mobile application development, a study survey was carried out. Based on the literature that was at the time, a survey was designed and then reviewed by subject-matter experts. During the time the data was being collected, more than 130 replies were received. With genuine experience in developing mobile apps, 69% of respondents are from the mobile industry, with the majority hailing within North America and representing 25% of the organisation size. Participants who are developers typically have experience in communication, utilities, and education-related mobile development areas.

According to the research’s findings, 22% of respondents started working on mobile applications to expand their businesses. Medium-sized development teams made up 41% of participants, and 57 per cent of developers said it takes 6–18 weeks to create a mobile app. 74% of the respondents test mobile apps within 1-2 weeks before the production release and 97% test apps before they are released. Four main stages make up the cell phone software engineering process, which has been acknowledged by mobile specialists as a successful method for creating mobile applications.

According to the study, small teams, short development cycles, constantly changing requirements, continuous integration, and continuous delivery processes make agile practices the most effective for creating mobile applications. Because of their small teams, quick development cycles, adaptability to constantly changing requirements, continuous integration, and continuous delivery processes, agile approaches have been said to be the most effective for creating mobile applications. Agile approaches are among the finest practices to follow in the process of developing mobile software, according to earlier research studies.

Conclusion and Future Work

An unbiased overview of the difficulties that confront mobile application developers is provided by this study. It implies that best practices can be applied to reduce the problems identified and improve the functionality of mobile apps. The document provides an overview and a guide for future studies on mobile app development. To examine the proposed approach and validate best practices, more research is required.
