“Great design will not sell an inferior product,
but it will enable a great product to achieve its maximum potential."
-Thomas J. Watson Jr.
Partners in Education
Graduates start their careers in various graphic design companies, printing plants, advertising agencies, in-house design and publishing departments, electronic pre-press studios and newspapers. The skill sets that students learn throughout the program are transferable across Canada and the United States. Our grads have secured employment in large urban centres as well as remote rural communities. Once students gain some industry experience, there are also opportunities to engage in freelance projects.
