The Aboriginal Design Program explores the limitless world of creativity through multimedia development, a combination of technical awareness with software applications, and the role of communication through commercial and visual art. The diploma program’s project work is tailored specifically to meet the requirements of the aboriginal student and the communities in which they work and contribute.
Through the use of innovative teaching practices, custom designed labs, and the use of real-world relevant projects, design students will be guided through the creative process. Graduates from the program will be versed in print, web, and multimedia design allowing them to use these skills to design, development and implement such things as:
· Community Focused websites
· Printed communication to possibly promote specific upcoming community or organizational events; create pamphlets, newsletters, and posters for events, conferences, powwows, roundances, and other gatherings.
