I hate that there are so many areas of design now-a-days and I’ve found that many design students are afraid to look outside their niche. Frankly, I love all areas of design. This is why I’ve decided to go for a second major in Industrial design to go along with my major in graphic design and I seem to be doing well in both areas. When I tell people what my two majors are they just look at me like I’m crazy or they ask “what does graphic design have anything to do with Industrial”?
My question is, is it a waste of time and energy pursuing both of these degrees only to find that the job market is just as segregated as design schools are?
