In-Demand Online Degrees You Can Earn Without Quitting Your Job

Online Degree #7: Graphic Design

Potential Career Options: Art director/ Graphic designer

Do you look at magazine ads or hoardings, and thought that it could have been done better? If yes then you should be thinking of taking up a degree in graphic design. An online degree in graphic design will help you better your skills without quitting your current job.

The College Board says that classes like graphic design techniques, Photoshop for designers, and typography are the typical coursework for a graphic design major.

The Online Advantage: "Online graphic design degrees are great because all of your day-to-day work in that field is going to be done online anyhow," says Pittsley-Fox.

She further adds, "The time you save in commuting to school you can use to build sites for your portfolio, which will be the most important aspect of your applications." "Most graphic designers even have their own business and do freelancing work from home, so the classroom environment could mimic that 'remote' sentiment."
