Digital Multimedia Design

Ever wanted to learn how to design websites, books, or newspapers? Do you wonder how people come up with creative ideas for advertisements? Or perhaps you’ve always wanted to know how to manipulate photos?

In the Digital Multimedia Design program at Machon L’Parnasa, you’ll learn the basics of creative graphic design, page layout, typography, digital imaging, and web page design. You’ll also receive a solid background in both the theories and software applications used for both print and electronic media.

After you successfully complete the associate’s degree program, you may qualify for entry-level positions in graphic design and web publishing. Whether you’d like to become an assistant art director, assistant web designer, digital photo processor, freelance media designer, production assistant, digital illustrator, and/or digital retoucher, the creative world is at your fingertips!
