Computer Graphic Design
Computer Graphic Design papers provide a specialised programme of study in computer graphic design, a creative process that utilises art and technology to communicate ideas. The papers offered comprise a core of studio based design skills, together with contemporary computer software and a context of design history and liberal arts.
Computer Graphic Design is available as a specified programme for the BCGD.
To complete the specified programme in Computer Graphic Design, students must complete the CGRD coded papers listed below (except CGRD161, CGRD165, CGRD 166, CGRD 224, CGRD353 and CGRD361), COMP103, COMP125, COMP126, 40 points from COMP223, COMP233, COMP258 or COMP278, 20 points from COMP324, COMP325 or COMP336, a further 15 points at 100 level, a further 20 points at 200 level, and a further 20 points at 300 level.
