Professional Perspective
The Graphic Design department educates students to become critical thinkers and versatile practitioners who develop outstanding concepts for visual communication. Graduates excel in their professional careers through their extraordinary conceptual and visual abilities, extensive knowledge of the profession and the world, strong technological curiosity and highly developed social engagement.
Our graduates practise their profession in numerous ways, from independent work to small studios and large agencies with dozens of employees. Many businesses employ in-house graphic designers, such as museums, architectural firms, software companies, publishers and media houses. The clientele is just as diverse, from private individuals to public institutions, corporate giants to state organisations, and local beauty salons to international broadcasting stations.
