Our University programme will enable you to transform your ideas into visual creations. You’ll consider typography, colour, shapes and shading and how combining these elements in a striking way can convey a strong message.
To ensure you’re equipped with the skills and knowledge to find the perfect role once you graduate, this bachelor’s degree reflects the graphic design industry. While other graphic design degrees teach you the theory, our programme ensures you practice it.
WHAT WILL I STUDY?
Using top-of-the-range software, our extensive industry connections and studio spaces, you’ll build a powerful skillset that will prepare you to convey your ideas and to operate in a business-like fashion within the creative industries. Throughout the programme, you’ll also engage with a series of workshops on typography, printmaking, photography, motion design and much more.
By the time you graduate, you’ll be a knowledgeable graphic designer capable of communicating the theory behind your ideas, the history of the industry and creating work that captures your audience.
You will be fully prepared to undertake a number of different roles including art director, graphic designer, marketing manager and illustrator.
