From branding and book design to advertising, motion graphics, packaging, and digital signage, graphic designers play a powerful role in shaping communication and influencing how the world sees and experiences ideas. At Durham College, our comprehensive Graphic Design program prepares you to do exactly that—by combining creative exploration with practical skills that reflect today’s industry needs.

In this dynamic three-year graphic design diploma program, you’ll gain hands-on experience in everything from logos, front-end web design, editorial layouts, and brand identity systems to motion graphics, digital campaigns, and user-focused design, through a variety of graphic design courses. You’ll be trained using industry-standard software like Adobe Creative Cloud, and you’ll learn how to bring your ideas to life across print, screen, and space using design thinking.

And when it comes to real-world experience, Durham College makes every moment count. We are proud that 100% of our students secure field placements with top-tier design studios, marketing agencies, or in-house creative teams before they graduate. We offer one of the longest field placements in Ontario for design students—giving you meaningful, hands-on work experience.

Whether you’re passionate about branding, motion, packaging, digital storytelling, or all of the above, Durham College’s Graphic Design program will prepare you to launch a career full of creative possibilities.
