The
Art Institute Online
Digital Design
Diploma
Through the diploma program in Digital
Design at The Art Institute Online, students can pursue
concentrated studies to improve existing skills, or
better prepare for career changes or promotion.
Courses are offered in a six-week intensive
format during which students complete assignments and
participate in online discussions five days per week.
Students may complete their work on those days at any
time during a 24-hour period. Students are encouraged
to take a maximum of two courses during each six-week
session. There are two six-week sessions within each
quarter.
Digital Design students learn design
fundamentals, lettering and typography, and graphic
design. Students create color composites and renderings,
and are introduced to using computer applications and
sophisticated software as design tools. Students use
these tools to create high quality layouts and designs.
Diploma program students come from diverse
backgrounds and have different individual goals - but
they all have a common desire to grow through education.
Faculty members for this diploma program
are experienced professionals who encourage the development
of skills. As students advance in the program, they
are guided by their instructors in developing portfolios
to show prospective employers.
The Digital Design program provides
students with a solid foundation for career growth.
Graduates are qualified for many entry-level positions,
including production or computer artists at newspapers,
advertising agencies, or television stations.
