In line with that philosophy, our faculty challenge you to develop an understanding of code, as well as strong graphic design, photography?and communication skills.

Messaging, communication theory, advertising, marketing, multimedia, social media, brand identity, writing, art and computer science ? these are all the core elements in a web designer?s toolbox, and they?re all waiting for you at Hastings. Throw in a bit of business sense and you?ll be ready to jump into new opportunities after graduation or launch your own firm.

Web design at Hastings College funnels through digital media and other courses in our Department of Visual Arts, as well as courses from departments across campus. Businesses of all sizes, non-profits, advertising agencies ? and more ? look for graduates who understand graphic design and the technical aspects of websites and the elements to build them. Our graduates are in demand and have an outstanding reputation in the marketplace.
