Swinburne Design courses offer students a broad and coherent body of knowledge in the area of multimedia design. Our courses combine theory and practice for various problem-solving applications used in the creative media industry. Students will be trained to understand how to utilize the design process to harness their creative and problem solving skills. Students will also be familiarized with a wide array of industry-relevant technical skills in order to work collaboratively in multi-disciplinary teams. Throughout the course students will have the opportunity to work on industry- relevant projects.
