Miranda’s Answer
Definitely! There's a whole lot of graphic designers out here, and still lots of demand for more! It's a very broad industry where you could be building websites, logos, creating ads or marketing materials, packaging design, merchandise design, all kinds of things. Pretty much every business out there needs SOME form of graphics work done in order to function and so the demand is always there, yet it's still a small enough industry that many designers in the same city may know each other or at least of the companies/design firms that they work for.
Thank you, this is really helpful.

Hi Gabriella,
I know several graphic designers in my work. They are a vital element to the creation of any visual used in Learning and Development at my company. And they apply their graphic design knowledge in different ways. Some create web portals, others focus on specific graphical elements of a training program. Others are animators or videographers. It is strange since Graphic Design seems to imply you are one thing - a designer of graphics. And yet that is only one of the many artistic visual and digital endeavors you can take on with a degree in Graphic Design.

Yes, and there are so many facets of graphic design between web, motion, fashion, and print. Almost every product you buy has some form of graphic design between marketing, advertising and the physical product.
A next step could be figuring out which facet interests you most to pursue.
