VISUALIZING CURRICULAR CONCEPTS<br />
OBJECTIVES<br />
visualizing<br />
curricular<br />
concepts<br />
With all of the aforementioned variables of graphic<br />
design education, it is difficult for beginners to visualize<br />
which design programs are best suited for their individual<br />
priorities. As neophytes to design in general, most would not<br />
have an inkling of how to determine which programs are best<br />
aligned with today’s professional expectations. Under this<br />
premise, it becomes imperative for students to evaluate the<br />
competitive industry expectations they will face before they<br />
embark upon their educational journey. Bridging these gaps<br />
becomes possible by retaining educators that remain informed<br />
of current and future professional expectations. But also by<br />
equipping beginner students up front with the informational<br />
tools to make knowledgeable decisions about their choice of<br />
graphic design programs.<br />
Nothing is more tragic than to have<br />
students attend programs expecting<br />
to receive professional preparation,<br />
only to find after graduation that<br />
major gaps exist in their education.<br />
