Tarneem al Mousawi - UK
Dip HE Graphic Design and Illustration Level 5
Tarneem is currently studying on our Graphic Design and Illustration level 5 programme. From an early age Tarneem has been interested in arts and crafts. At school, she gained a qualification in art and decided to go to college to study Multimedia Design and Production.
However, she was disappointed that the course lacked any real experience of a practical, creative nature.
After working in a corporate environment in the Middle East, Tarneem finally realised that she wanted to make a career out of design and enrolled with IDI:
‘I love the practical element of drawing and crafting and this course sounded like it would allow me the opportunity to experience this while learning more about graphic design and the design process.’
Tarneem is currently working part time at the University of Strathclyde as a secretary to the directors of the Institute of Energy and Environment. The flexibility of working part time allows her to study online with IDI.
‘IDI was the only place that offered the flexibility of keeping my current job and studying the course I wanted. I needed the financial stability of my current job as I am paying a mortgage.’
