What is involved in web design? Graphic design? Computer Programming?

I would like to know more about web design classes, and how it is as a temporary and possible long term career. I have taken classes in C++ programing and was good at it, and I enjoyed it. I have also been thinking graphic design, I’m pretty creative and can draw alright–but I will admit that I’m not the best at drawing.
People who already work in the field, or are taking classes would be very much appreciated if they answered this. 
I’m in a 4 year Co-op program in college. Honestly, I see that there are 2 types of direction you can go in this field.
1. The Creative/Design side
2. The Programming side
If you liked your c++ classes and enjoyed developing code, you’d probably want to be a software developer, or programmer. However, if you like working with design and asthetics, you’d probably like to be a web designer.
If you’re into both, a web developer needs to know the programming side, and design side. So manly you would need to study PHP, Java, Javascript, C #
