Visual Literacy in Higher Education
Abstract
This research paper examines the role of visual literacy in academia and its impact on students' education and professional lives. The study explores theoretical perspectives on visual literacy, its presence in university curricula, and student perceptions of its relevance. Using a qualitative analysis of the Bucharest University of Economic Studies (ASE București) curricula and a questionnaire, the findings reveal that visual literacy remains an overlooked competency, despite its importance in modern education. The article argues for the integration of structured visual literacy training in higher education to enhance critical thinking and professional preparedness.
