JonMack Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I go to Newport and study Graphic Design, and although it's not the greatest course, I think that job prospects will be a lot better after I get a degree, it basically show's youre committed to studying and the subject interests you a lot.I say go for it, uni is f**king awesome.Sorry this post sucks, im not in the mood to write!

Janson Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 uni is fun. especially if you like to drink alcohol.i think it's a combination of uni and the swedish alcohol culture; generally speaking, swedes don't drink socially like the rest of the world, instead we drink to get completely off our faces, several times a week. that's why you have to buy your alcohol at shops run by the government. on a more serious note, uni is a great laugh. i love it.

Dai the Socket Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 uni is fun, as long as you want to go graphic design then go for it.a lot of graphic design students are jobless when they come out of uni though, more so than other professions. I know 2 graphic designers who did well at uni and work at tescos now 'cos they can't get a job. You really really really really need to stand out and not only be good at design but also interpersonal skills, bla bla bla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
