The Graphic Communication major at Cal Poly has UI/UX concentration. How good is this major? Does anyone know the job prospects, pay range etc. One concerning aspect is that it has a lot of courses on printing tech, magazine design & printing etc., which today is a declining market.
I can’t tell you about that major, but I can speak to Cal Poly still teaching things that certain people no longer do. My son is a mechanical engineer and they were taught to flat draft, which literally no one does anymore (they all CAD) and to weld, which no engineers do anymore. The thought is that it gives them a better appreciation in designing things that others will build. How that translates to your major, I’m not sure, but I bet there’s a solid rationale. Ask the department.
