Graphic design contest

Design the Future

The College of Arts & Sciences is looking for a bold, creative and inspiring new graphic to represent our diverse and dynamic community. This is your chance to showcase your artistic talent and leave a lasting mark on the college!

Who can enter?

This contest is open to all students in the College of Arts & Sciences with a passion for design and creativity.

Important things to consider

The graphic should be designed with one-color and two-color design options. Different options are needed for different uses.

The TWU logo must be incorporated on all printed materials, so keep the TWU logo in mind.

What we're looking for

We want a fresh, modern and meaningful graphic, symbol, or icon that reflects the spirit and identity of the College of Arts & Sciences. Your design should capture the diversity of disciplines within the College and its commitment to innovation, knowledge and creativity. See full list of academic degree programs below. The graphic will be reproduced on T-shirts, mugs, and other merchandise advertising the College of Arts & Science, so designs that will work well on these types of items will be best (see examples of an older design and a graphic from another program). Whether you're an artist or just someone with a great idea, we encourage you to participate!

Prizes and recognition

The winning design will be featured on merchandise as the official graphic for the College of Arts & Sciences, plus we are offering the following prizes:

• 1st place - $1000 Scholarship
• 2nd place - $500 Scholarship
• 3rd place - $250 Scholarship

Scholarships can be applied to either FA25 or SP25 tuition. Students may collaborate on a design, but they would split the scholarship award. The top three designs will be recognized on the college website and social media. Please note that the design must be appropriate for use in advertising the college. The final designs used on merchandise will have to be approved by TWU Marketing & Communications and may be modified to meet TWU brand and style guidelines.
