So you've been accepted to Emily Carr University of Art & Design and you're looking at your options - maybe contemplating a major in Communications Design.
I received my Bachelors Degree from ECUAD in Communications Design in 2018 - and have been working as a Marketer and Digital Designer for the past two years. Honestly, I think my experience here helped me immensely as a Designer and if given the choice, knowing what I know now - I would go again in a heartbeat.
It's a great school - challenging at times, confusing and frustrating at others - but overall I feel it helped my develop my skillset immensely.
The program is very heavily focused on developing concepts, research and the creative process rather than technical skills - and I felt this allowed for deeper exploration of design concepts and greater creative freedom within projects.
This video covers my honest thoughts and opinions about the school, broken into four chapters:

I could go on for hours about the school, my time, and my experiences - but these were my main takeaways about the program and school.
