About the course
Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Professional Design (Visual Communication) is a three-year honours degree that aims to progressively develop the students’ creative potential in conceptualising and using innovative technical skills. By their fourth semester, students will gain eleven weeks of practical industry experience. During their first three semesters of study, students will acquire the fundamental knowledge and skills of a graphic designer with direct exposure to the industry in the areas of corporate communications, multimedia and illustration. Equipped with entrepreneurship and design management knowledge, our graduates will enter the industry with the confidence to succeed and ready to take their careers at a global level. In the final year, students will specialise and develop deeper knowledge in an area of their choice, which includes advertising and multimedia with supporting subjects in animation, web technology and marketing. Art & design is the application of design and aesthetics to objects of function and everyday use. Whereas fine arts serve as intellectual stimulation to the viewer or academic sensibilities, the applied arts incorporate design and creative ideals to objects of utility, such as a cup, magazine or decorative park bench.
