is it worth taking an a level in graphics, when AI is progressing so rapidly?

i start sixth form college in september - i chose graphics over art or textiles as i find it easier. but i’m seeing a lot of things saying that graphic designers are at threat because of AI, so i don’t imagine i would want to continue it at university. would the a level be a waste if i want to go on to do art or fashion/interior design at uni? would i need to take fine art or textiles a level instead to get in?

Hi @kittyfilarious,

Graphic Design courses at degree level are still very much a good degree with lots of opportunities to work in many industries.Take a look at our 4 various Graphics courses here: Norwich Uni courses. Alternatively, we also have textiles and interior design courses.

Please feel free to get in touch if you have any further questions 🙂

Thanks,
Charlotte, Student Ambassador (y2 Graphic Design)
