Communication design is a popular design course where the students learn about the various ways they can communicate visually, graphically or otherwise to an audience. It’s an innovative course where the students are challenged to design better mediums of communication along with the messages themselves.

After a short video break, Mr. Vasanth Joshua spoke about the career opportunities at DOT. Being the co-founder of FINDCreative avenue, an innovative graphical solutions company, Mr.Vasanth shared anecdotes about his ventures in the industry. From his work experience to where all he draws inspirations for his designs helped the students understand what a career in Graphic design actually looks like.
