Im study bachelor of logistics and supply chain management as suggested and persuaded by my parents, I understand it is high-demand industry so there is high possibility to find a job compare to accounting graduates. I always loved to design and printing industry, I love designing posters and logos in my spare time, and my colleagues says my work looks really professional, I see myself have potential to become a good graphic designer. After chatting to my best friend, i decided to do another 3-year degree once I complete my current study. I like to pay special attention to the layout of content everytime I read magazines or flip through catalogues or seeing poster in clothing store such as G-star or country road has fashion elements that attract to young people. I also keep the following sites as favourie which I have few poster for my room

You know how there are so many programs for bachelor of business, such as management, administration, accounting and business. So is the bachelor of arts that I should studying, if so what is it called? Is it bachelor of arts (graphic design) or bachelor of arts (2D design)?

Can anyone who is taking graphic design talk about the curriculum program, like what you do in each year, what is expected, the subjects and how the lecture and tutes are like etc.
Thx heaps for answering all questions

The images you are showing are Illustration, not Graphic Design per say. Illustrators are highly talented artists.... it may be a good career if you have the talent already.



Graphic Design can be done on any computer anywhere which means it currently pays $4 an hour in India.... not a good career move.

First of all, a Bachelor of Logistics and Supply Chain Management is a pretty useless degree. It is not even an industry, let alone a high demand industry. These jobs are support roles for a number of industries, and generally low paid with low requirements. Saying there are better job opportunities than accounting is laughable. Accounting has far more options, far more jobs, and far more potential. An accountant salary will start at a similar level to someone in logistics, but once they get their CA/CPA their earnings will race ahead.



Secondly, graphic design is tough to get into. A lot of people work as freelancers and there aren't many full-time roles out there. You have to have extremely good artistic talents to be a graphic designer. This career is by no means secure, it has limited growth potential, and is pretty competitive for any actual work. A lot of graphic designers end up in admin jobs where they end up formatting reports etc.



The course you are thinking of is a Bachelor of Design with a major in Visual Communications or Graphic design. Most of the classes involve being "Artistic". There are classes about drawing, calligraphy, website design, photography, art, and using graphic design software (e.g. photoshop). Classes are graded subjectively as a lot depends on how your tutor interprets what you have made. It's like that in a lot of artistic disciplines. They aren't as many exams but the assignments are very labour intensive. There is a big focus on art and artistic ability so if you have struggled with drawing or painting or anything like that in high school you will probably struggle in this course.



I would suggest that, instead of doing a Bachelor of Design, you do either Marketing or Advertising. There are a lot more jobs, you can be qualified with a Masters degree (half the time of another bachelor degree), and you will get to design posters and help create brands for companies. Graphic designers would work under you in these positions.



Finally I would suggest doing some intensive study to pick up your English skills. Reading your question it appears English is not your first language or you have language difficulties. You need to have a good mastery of spelling and grammar to be successful in either graphic design or marketing/advertising.
