Suffolk University's certificate in graphic design is ideal if you have some prior college-level background and/or significant employment experience in a related field. It's designed for those who don't want the extensive training of the BFA but require more focused design training to complement existing educational or work credentials.

We'll train you to use the computer as a design tool. The primary emphasis of all courses, however, remains the conceptual, creative process. Your Suffolk certificate will provide you with the practical and technical design skills you'll need to secure entry-level employment in the graphic design field.

Thanks to our flexible schedule, you can complete this program in two or more years (four semesters minimum).
