Intereseted in a graphic design degree?

What is digital media design? It's the combination of creativity and technology. It encompasses the areas of print design, digital photography, digital video, motion graphics, 3-D animation, multimedia authoring, and Web design and development. It's also one of the newest and fastest growing additions to the Central Ohio Technical College list of degrees. Employment of digital media designers is expected to grow 21 to 35 percent per year through 2010.

Create your future at Central Ohio Technical College. COTC is located in Newark, Ohio, only 30 minutes east of Columbus. More than a degree: You'll get formal training in design fundamentals. Develop your creative vision. Learn to think outside the box. It's about learning to see. It's about developing skills. It's about finding your creative muse... and how to keep on being imaginative when your muse deserts you.
