Graphic Design, Certificate

The  Graphic Design Certificate  is  for working adults with a 4-year baccalaureate undergraduate degree from an accredited institution  who seek to gain the skills and competency to advance into a career in graphic design or gain skills to enhance their current work. The certificate must be pursued on a part-time basis, and there may be additional prerequisite courses required. It encompasses a specific body of knowledge and practice that prepares candidates for rewarding positions in the design field. 

Tuition is billed at the undergraduate rate, and most students complete certificate requirements in four semesters, as the certificate is a part-time program.  Pre-advising  is not necessary, but is recommended, as there may be a prerequisite class required if applicants do not have prior experience with graphic design software.
