Graduate prepared to join the ranks of adventurous designers changing the way we interact with our environment and enhancing the way we live. You'll gain the industry experience, networks and knowledge needed to succeed in cutting-edge design fields, opening opportunities for work in the fields of graphic design, interior design, product design, digital web design, design management, design education, film and television, theatre, furniture design, interaction design and immersive design and digital media.
 

Designers are needed in every organisation and in every industry. Organisations are recognising the value of integrating "design thinking" into their process and employ designers to help problem solve complex challenges in a constantly changing environment. You could be designing a new prototype for a clean energy company, an interior for a new housing typology, communicating information visually across a broad spectrum of media, or designing interactive and immersive experiences in simulated environments. This is a diverse career, which will be guided by your own interests and choice of major.
