Alumni Experiences
at GrC

"I truly enjoyed my time as a student in the GrC Department. Not only did I learn a lot, but I also made lasting connections with some really great students and professors. However, I didn't fully realize how beneficial the experience would be until I graduated and entered the job market. The skills, portfolio pieces, and experienced gained in GrC at Cal Poly opened doors to some great job opportunities. I now run my own design and communication business, and I truly believe that I wouldn't be where I am today without my GrC experience."

"I began at Cal Poly in the Graphic Communication department with NO idea of what I was getting myself into. I thought the program would be all about Photoshop and computer graphics, but it ended up being so much more – and I loved it! The Design ReproductionTechnology (DRT) concentration fed my creative needs, while the core classes challenged my knowledge. After graduating two years ago, I found my current job through Cal Poly GrC connections. I am now excelling at what I do because of all that I have learned and experience through this program."

"Even though GrC isn't a 'graphic design' program, if you have the talent and desire you will be able to refine your skills. GrC encrompasses so much more than design. GrC helps you understand how the entire process works, giving you an advantage over a design major. The experience and knowledge of the GrC faculty is above and beyond anything you will find elsewhere."
