DENNIS Wong, 22, was in a quandary after finishing secondary school. He likes visual art but felt that he would not be able to live on his art alone. His parents believed that he was better off enrolling in a more marketable programme like Information Technology (IT).The alternative, Dennis decided, was to take up a course that combines art with IT. Herein, lies the problem.
“I knew that you can combine IT with art but was not sure what the right programme was. I only knew that there is IT or creative multimedia but was not sure what the differences are,” shares the Limkokwing University College of Creative Technology graduate.
