Design Department
Good design is why one product gets used and an identical one gets ignored. This department trains both sides of the craft: visual design for brand, print and social, and product design for interfaces people actually complete tasks in. You learn typography, colour and layout properly, then move into Figma, design systems, prototyping and usability testing, finishing with a portfolio of three case studies written the way hiring managers and clients read them.

Design — frequently asked questions
Do I need to be good at drawing?
No. Digital design is about hierarchy, spacing and clarity. Drawing is a bonus, not a requirement.

Figma for interfaces, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for visual and print work, plus Canva for fast turnaround.
