Careers

Graduates work as designers within industries such as internet and interactive media creators, game design, animation, advertising and photography. Students also start their own company as a creative technologist or entrepreneur with knowledge that they are able to brand, market and promote their company through web and social media.

Employers are interested in designers who possess more than the ability to generate ideas and technologists who have a creative approach to their work. Both must be familiar with the current trends as well as relevant technologies needed to implement those ideas; be able to model their ideas within the digital environment and be able to have a good understanding and dialogue with other people within a team who have responsibility for the technical realisation of their ideas.

The University of Winchester ranks in the top 10 in the UK for graduates in employment or further study according to the Graduate Outcomes Survey 2021, HESA.
