I’m just about to finish my honours year in Product design but I have experience doing CSS and xHTML web design.
I need to start making some choices about my career path. Most advice has been to specialice in design as that is where my educationa nd experience lies. However, most employers want some development skills. My product design course ahs included a lot of system design work I have always found dynamic websites and technologies interesting, although my experince is minimal.
In the long run I would like to own my own e-commerce clothing shop and have the opportunity to do an extra year in e-commerce development technologies (business and coding skills).
So I’m asking for advice should I stick to the design side an start learning flash, or would it be more beneficial to get both coding and design skills together?
