All things in print

Students learn the finishing and layout techniques for printed materials, both using computerized bookbinding machinery and by hand. They also learn to repair books and cut out various printed products, such as business cards, brochures, calendars and packaging. Bookbinders give professional advice regarding the finishing of printed products and choice of materials for bookbinding. They select the right type of paper for each job and handle the finishing of all printed products.

Creative design and technology

Students learn to design and compile material for print and screen media with emphasis on printmaking, graphic design, multimedia and digital editing.

Students learn to use software for picture processing, layout and web. Graphic media designers control the setup of material for publishing as well as handling layout, look, sketching, concept work, copywriting, picture editing and printmaking.

Students learn about graphic design and the presentation of material for print and multimedia, screen and Internet. Emphasis is placed on printmaking, typography, graphic design, multimedia and digital set up/composition of pictures and colour (control/editing?)

The study programme is progressive and uses the latest technology to present and communicate information.

After finishing the three semesters of preparatory studies students choose between four specialties: graphic media design, bookbinding, printing or photography that are all certified trades.

Capture the perfect moment

Printing is a diverse discipline and students in our programme learn to process originals from print plates, print blocks and digital, set up the paper for the printing machinery, and adjust colour settings and finishing of the final product. Students also learn to handle quality control and the day to day operation of printing machinery.

The programme teaches different printing methods, such as offset printing, digital printing, relief printing and flexography. A printer is responsible for deciding which printing method to use and works closely with other professionals in the field.
