Answer 1

Hey Prometheus,

Some of the answer depends if you want to get a degree, and to what level (associates, bachelors, masters, ...).

If you want a bachelors degree, you must take the core courses at the college you attend.

Some Graphic design courses are:
a series of studio participation exercises using tools, media and materials in the study of design elements and principles fundamental to the visual arts.
Two-dimensional graphic illusion, emphasis on manipulation of surface elements, which control imagery and expression.
Theory and application of color.
Three-dimensional form and space with emphasis on nature of materials, spatial organization and expressive composition

These are only some of the possibilities. You should spend some time on the Internet. There are schools in Italy - wow, what an experience.
