Overview

Advanced Diploma - Graphic Design

The Graphic Design program is an ideal training ground for the design profession. 

The program at George Brown College provides a strong overall understanding of design while also allowing you to select a major in either: 

Communication Design, which prepares you for a Corporate Design career, or Advertising Design, which prepares you for a career at an advertising agency. 

In addition, design electives allow you to gain skills in illustration, motion, interaction, web, book and environmental design.

The first three semesters provide a strong foundation in the core subjects of design, typography, production, digital applications, drawing for design and design culture. 

In the fourth semester, you choose a major while continuing to develop applied skills through intensive studio projects. 

In the final year, you become involved in a thesis or major project, which allows for the synthesis of skills. 

You will also engage in professional practice classes that prepare you for the workplace.

Students with an overall grade point average of 3.3 or higher by the end of semester 4 will be eligible for field placement.
