ABSTRACT

Graphic design education in the West and China is at a more modern and specialised level than Uganda. This situation ensures that Western and Chinese graphic design students get better employment and job security compared to Ugandan design students. Ugandan education systems need to invest in early-age studies in order to create better chances for future graphic design students to get employment and become investors in this field. This paper discusses comparisons amongst Western, Chinese and Ugandan education systems and give suggestions on how to bridge the gaps. It concludes by suggesting how direct and indirect changes may advance the future job opportunities of graphic design students in Uganda with examples from China and the West.
