Im very interested to learn about computer graphics but the more I look into it I kinda feel its a niche field and not much strutted resource or curriculum is available. Would you have any tips on where I should start?

For 3D, the book “Physically Based Rendering” by Humphreys & Pharr is excellent. I think the entire text is free online nowadays.
The full text is available here: http://www.pbr-book.org/

The latest text has an additional author: Wenzel Jakob

If you like some practical project I can highly recommend Day tracing in one weekend by Peter Shirley.
