Computers have transformed design in recent years, opening up a whole new world of possibilities.

If you love designing things, and are excited about working with computers, NMIT’s courses will give you the opportunity to develop your skills to industry standard.

Work in an area of design like:

• graphic
• industrial
• web-based design

Or choose a career such as:

• illustrator
• product developer
• multimedia artist
• photographer
• fashion designer

If you already work as a designer, you can broaden your skills base. Gain skills and knowledge including:

• print and online production technology
• clothes design and wearable objects
• advanced drawing and painting skills
• typography
• producing drawings to concept
• creating 2D and 3D work to a brief
• digital imaging and animation
• electronic presentations
• multimedia products
• computer aided design
• selecting and preparing work for exhibition
• interpreting and responding to a brief
• applying colour theory
• drawing on the history of design
• using a 35mm SLR camera or digital

If you are a graphic artist, you can exhibit in NMIT’s two galleries, at our Preston and Fairfield campuses.

Since 1980, NMIT’s design students have had a very high rate of employment at the completion of their courses. Our students are consistent winners of competitions and awards, and our staff are practicing designers.
