- They are very focused on theory based work rather than practical. They focus a lot on strategy and research than design and don't really teach you technical skills or grade you on the basis of your technical skills. If you choose graphic design here you've got to accept that you won't be 'desiging' or exploring various methods to design and instead only work on strategising and researching for a specific project for ages and rushing the design at the very end.
