This program draws its curricula from across a variety of careers and activities within the field of design and visual arts. Students develop a collection of work that demonstrates their art-related knowledge and skills, as well as their own individual interests. The emphasis is on the development of broadly applicable skills alongside the opportunity to take courses that relate to one or more specific visual art disciplines. Therefore, this program is best suited for individuals who seek a generic focus in their study of design and visual arts, and wish to emphasize their personal artistic development over the completion of a course of study tied to one specific career. Career opportunities for graduates of the Design and Visual Arts - General Diploma will vary with each student as they meet their own individual and unique academic and career goals.
