What will I learn?

Graphic designers use critical thinking and visual design skills to create marketing materials that inform and influence target audiences. The Oregon Employment Department projects demand for graphic designers will grow 18% through 2027.



Portland has a reputation for being a highly creative city with an active design community. Local firms such as Nike, Adidas, and Wieden + Kennedy expect a high level of craft and innovation from the graphic designers they employ.



A close connection to a thriving local design industry is a great asset for PCC graphic design students – one that can be leveraged effectively with the right training. PCC’s Graphic Design program helps you acquire the visual design skills that many local companies are seeking.
