What can you do for a career in graphic design?
I’m thinking about majoring in graphic design. When you have a career in graphic design, do you have to illustrate and design on your own using the computer or can you use the help from the computer to design and illustrate?
Also, what kinds of careers are there for graphic design?
As a graphic designer, you can use whatever tools are necessary to accomplish the project. Most graphic designers use a computer these days. But they also incorporate traditional illustration, photography, etc.
The U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook contains a lot of good information about careers in graphic design.

The field of grahpic arts or computered art is such a wide variety of jobs, its an amazing, wide field from creating ads to printing to a hundred different kinds of jobs that have to do with art in the computing industry. PIcking a speciality in this amazing area will become difficult because it is so vast and so very interesting. You could not make a better decision.
