Highlights of the training program

Focus on practice
This curriculum stresses practical application through graphic design projects, enabling students to create professional-level work that meets program and industry standards. From the second semester onward, students gain hands-on experience in various professional settings, such as design studios, print design firms, media organizations, and advertising agencies, to understand product development, design, and manufacturing processes.
Associated to enterprises
Students have the opportunity to interact with digital artists, visual effects artists, and art directors to learn about creative experience and the operational processes of large-scale projects. From the third year onwards, students will participate in a professional internship at businesses in the creative industry. This internship provides students with the chance to experience a professional work environment, hone their teamwork skills, and build an impressive portfolio as a foundation for their graduation project.
Modern curriculum
The curriculum is built on benchmarks against international art education standards, continuously updated with the latest technological trends such as artificial intelligence (AI) in art, virtual reality (VR/AR), and 3D graphics. This helps students not only excel in aesthetic thinking but also master global technical standards, opening up opportunities to work in multinational corporations, international studios, or participate in the cross-border digital art market.
