Course Information

If you're drawn to the idea of a profession where your imagination is your only limitation, then chances are graphic design will be your type of career.

Our Bachelor doesn't just scratch the surface of visual aesthetic, but delves deep into the craft, providing you with a detailed understanding and hands-on experience across typography, pre-press, design for print, web and digital publishing and more.

At SAE you won’t find yourself in a lecture with 300 people or even in a traditional lecture at all. You’ll be in a studio environment with the latest Adobe Creative Suite. Your growth and development will be assessed through the completion of industry-based projects, not theoretical based essays. This will ultimately help you build up a body of work and portfolio to share with potential employers or first client.

In preparation for an industry that commands agility and adaptability, you’ll cut your creative teeth on projects initially in partnership with your course peers. As your skills develop and you work on more dynamic projects, you’ll apply your capabilities on cross-discipline projects. By the end of your course you could be collaborating with fellow students across SAE’s global network.  

Ultimately, this is all about a qualification that will expand your career. There is work placement as part of your course, to provide practical experience and help build your network. We’ll also equip you with employability skills, giving you professional strategies in communication and self-promotion.

For those wanting to go the extra, and thousands of miles, you can complete up to two trimesters of your course at selected SAE campuses across the planet. Suddenly, real-world experience just went worldwide.

All of this is to ensure one very important thing – that you finish as a graphic designer, and not a graphic desig-nah.
