Is a graphic design degree with a concentration in marketing better than just a graphic design degree?
Hi! I am a freshman at a community college currently and am trying to decide on a major for when I transfer to a four-year college. The Graphic design degree with marketing has more marketing classes of course. I am curious if that would boost my job availability or not so much. I enjoy the art side of graphic design and love to write so I am wondering if the marketing concentration would be beneficial.
Does one need to be good at drawing to pursue a career in graphic design?
Even though I don't plan on pursuing a career in the graphic design field, this has always been a question of curiosity. I'm taking a communications technology course where we look at graphic design, and our teacher said that you don't need to know how to draw at all. Rather, you just need to know how to communicate effectively and know how to utilize the tools properly. Any input would be appreciated. #graphic-design #art #design #graphic-designer #career

What career should I focus on?
I have doubts if I want to build a career as a digital artist or as a graphic designer. If I can't choose what career I want to pursue in life, should I pick what I love doing or the one that is the most profitable and in demand? I did some research and I think nowadays there's more demand for graphic designers than artists. Digital art is a market more saturated than graphic design. There is also to consider all the problems related to AI platforms like Midjourney or DALL-E. This makes me think that, even if I like drawing, maybe it's not a profitable business like it was in the past. So I'm scared to take this risk. However having these thoughts, I can't commit to anything and I keep procrastinating because I'm too scared to take action. Do you know something that could help me choose? Do you have any advice to give to stop this problem? I've tried doing both these past months, but I noticed that I couldn't. My plan was to study graphic design in the morning and practice drawing in the afternoon, but it was too much to handle for me. I had no energy left in the afternoon or I had other personal tasks to do. After doing this for some weeks, I started waking up tired and some days I skipped my morning routine. I was also exhausted about switching topics to learn everyday. That's why I suppose I need to choose one and stick with it. Do you have any advice to suggest? What do you think I should do?
Do you have conflicts at work about specific layouts?

is it possible to get two more minors after I graduate college?
I am majoring in communications integrated media management. I have a required minor that will either be marketing or psychology. I am also required to take several art classes and two graphic design classes. I think it would be useful to gain a minor in graphic design and a minor in photography after I graduate. I feel like both would elevate my marketability. Would this be a good route or is there a better way to this?
