What are some good colleges for studying web design?

I'm really passionate about web design and I'm looking for colleges with strong programs in this field. Are there certain schools known for their web design courses or professors? Any recommendations would be appreciated!

You're going in the right direction, seeking out colleges known for their web design programs. Here's a list of colleges that are renowned for their strong programs in this field:

1. Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) – Known for their New Media Design undergraduate program, which combines traditional design principles with technological skills.

2. Parsons School of Design, The New School – Their Design and Technology (BFA) program is excellent, and courses in web design are a key part of the curriculum.

3. Carnegie Mellon University – They offer an Integrative Design, Arts and Technology (IDeATe) program with a focus on Media Design which includes aspects of web design.

4. Brigham Young University – Their Graphic Design program includes an extensive exploration of web design and user interfaces.

5. Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) – They offer a B.F.A in Interactive Design and Game Development, where you can learn not just about web design but also user experience (UX) and user interface (UI).

These schools offer comprehensive and rigorous programs with renowned faculty and great opportunities for hands-on learning, networking, and internships in the field. They would provide a solid foundation for a career in web design. For a more comprehensive choice, consider programs that focus on Interactive Media or User Experience design as web design is often a subset of these broader fields. Do also consider the location of these schools, how strong their alumni network is in tech/digital fields and other aspects that are important to you in a college experience.
