Abstract
This article examines the importance of effectively integrating graphic design into computer science education, emphasizing the need for integrative curricula. It is emphasized that such an approach requires taking into account the specifics of both disciplines and contributes to the formation of a comprehensive understanding of the subject, the development of professional competencies, and the training of specialists capable of meeting the requirements of modern society. In the context of the rapid development of digital technologies, the article emphasizes the relevance of the integration of graphic design into IT education. The practical aspects of such integration are considered, including the usage of innovative technical tools, programs, and teaching methods aimed at improving the quality of education. Special attention is paid to project-oriented learning, which allows students to implement practical tasks, developing both graphic and computer skills. Examples are given of how students can be involved in the development of websites, mobile applications, and multimedia projects, using knowledge from both fields. Emphasis is also placed on the importance of software tools such as Adobe Photoshop, and Illustrator for graphic design and programming languages and environments for web development, enabling students to acquire the necessary technical skills for their future careers. Special attention is paid to the role of integration in qualified teacher training capable of working effectively in a high-tech, information-oriented society. Specific examples of courses and projects that demonstrate the implementation of an interdisciplinary approach in education are provided, as well as recommendations for further improvement of educational programs are developed. The analysis emphasizes the potential and importance of integrated teaching of graphic design and informatics for the training of future teachers, aimed at their professional development and improvement of the educational process in general
