Art Director

This is a fast-paced, creative position. As an art director, you'll design, position, and make art dance to your marketing tune. It's all about eye-catching presentation of information, and with typography making a big comeback, this career puts you on the cutting edge of art and marketing at the same time.

An associate's degree in computer graphics or design could get you started in the art field, but to make it to the coveted position of art director, you're probably looking at an art degree with coursework in business. Career training for this job is intense, rewarding, and lets you move up the ladder.
