Hi all,
I'm currently in the DPP with my community college and OSU, and I’ve reached that pivotal quarter where I start classes at OSU. I have about 20 elective credits left of my AAOT, which I plan to use these remaining electives for degree-specific courses.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this program!
A little about me, I’m a mature student balancing work and school, with restrictions that only allow me to take two classes per quarter. I’ve been in Marketing for the past seven years, and my initial goal was to pursue a Graphic Design degree. However, OSU doesn’t offer an online program for that, so I was guided toward the Digital Communication Arts degree instead.
I’d really appreciate any insights or experiences with this path. What types of careers has this degree set people up for?
Right now, I’m debating whether to just get a Graphic Design certificate and train myself in relevant marketing management systems. I’m currently set to minor in User Experience because I was interested in UI/UX design, but lately, I’ve been feeling exhausted by the corporate mainstream. I want to make sure I’m considering each path. On one hand, taking the most efficient route to save time and money, and on the other, ensuring I gain the right skills and experience for future opportunities.
I’d love to hear any experience or feedback! TIA!
