Where the best graphic designers go!
The Designers Institute of New Zealand’s Best Design Awards say it all.
Computer Graphic Design is a creative process that combines art and technology to communicate ideas. The Whanganui School of Design was established in Wanganui in the late 1980s and has since gained an international reputation for its experimental work in new media and graphic design. The programme begins with the message that in the hands of a talented designer, communication transcends mere words. By controlling image and text, the designer creates and manages the production of information designed to inform, persuade and educate a specific audience.
The degree in Computer Graphic Design is jointly awarded by the Whanganui School of Design and the University of Waikato in recognition of the design technology and research relationship established between both institutions.
