Mac Studio One. 

We are an intimate and small department with three core staff and a small host of industry specialists to augment student training. Staff are all intense and passionate educators who are excited about the way design skills are integrated into the lives of individuals. At the end of study every group gets the chance to show off their hard work. Students will have a graduation exhibition where they can rub shoulders with guests from industry and let family and friends see the amazing transformation first hand. During the Advanced Diploma of Graphic Design students have access to practical placement opportunities based on their performance in class. Our industry partners have been supportive of the program for over 30 years now and they are all strong believers in giving students a taste of what the real world is like. Where possible we like to give students the opportunity to see first hand what working in an advertising agency, a design studio, a production house, or a multimedia studio is like so that students can imagine where they might like to work the most. This program has 40 years of history and was one of the original providers of design education as the industry was forming in Australia in the 1970's and 1980's. We are proud that many of the graduates are now in top positions within industry. They have used their training opportunities to work hard and forge successful careers in advertising, design and production.

  1. Thanks Stefan. Nice opportunity for students to have an exhibition at graduation. I also imagine that once they are in area of the design industry, your graduates could be helpful at offering or suggesting placement opportunities.
    I look forward to seeing some student work examples
