Check if you qualifyThe Certificate in Graphic Design at the University of Education, Winneba, is a practical programme in the School of Creative Arts. It is less competitive than many university programmes, so it is open to SHS leavers with average grades. Here is what the field covers and how the certificate can shape your career.
What graphic design programmes actually cover
Certificate programmes in graphic design typically start with the fundamentals: how to create visual messages using text, colour, and images. You learn the practical skills that studios and in-house design teams expect, such as working with layout, composition, and digital design tools. The emphasis is on doing, rather than theory, so you build a small portfolio of work as you study.
How hard it is to get a place
This certificate is a less competitive programme. Your WASSCE aggregate does not need to be as high as for degree courses in the same field, but you still have to meet the general admission requirements of the University of Education, Winneba. If your grades are average and you have an interest in art or design, this is a reasonable option to consider.
