Content

The HND Graphic Design course contains a mix of units aimed to meet the expectations for progression to Honours or employment opportunities: mainly project-based and practical, we put a strong emphasis on the design process, sketchbook ideation (the heart and soul of any design concept), typography, (the key skill to being a Graphic Designer) and digital skills (knowledge of industry software pulls the design process into a final piece of Graphic Design). Our dedicated computer studios (Macs) run the latest industry standard software Adobe CC. In this digital environment you will learn InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects.
