Abstract

The study sought to find out the influence of today’s Technology on the Graphic Design programme being pursued by Higher National Diploma (HND) students at the Department of Graphic Design Technology. This is against the background that Technology forms an integral part of the Graphic Design programme in the 21st century. An in-depth review of related literature from various authors have been discussed concerning the study. Through non-probability purpose sampling, an aggregate of 134 students and teaching staff were selected for the study. The research methodology employed for the study included the use of participant observation and questionnaire to reveal key findings for the study. This was complemented with proper structured and semi-structured interview techniques to beseech views from respective respondents for practical analysis. Consequently, the researchers’ findings from the data revealed that Technology had had some level of impacts on the Graphic Design programme. Based on the findings the researchers have made appropriate recommendations to help include the contemporary trends in the Technology for the Graphic Design programme in the technical university to prepare students adequately with the requite hands-on training as the Graphic Design industry in Ghana and beyond demands; although the importance and the practices cannot be over emphasised.
