Graphic Design and Typography MA

Course Overview

Our MA Graphic Design and Typography is a student-centered, practice-led course that will allow you to experiment with diverse and innovative techniques, advancing your typographic practice to the postgraduate level. Whether you are an established professional designer or a new graduate or have come to graphic design via a different professional route, you will receive the training you need to develop your understanding of the business and social contexts of graphic communication as well as your practice. At the end of the course, you will use all the skills you have developed to research and complete a final visual project relating to your own specialisms. Your studies will be supported by a team of expert, practicing professionals, including Course Leader Will Hill (author of The Complete Typographer), David Jury (author of Reinventing Print: Technology and Craft in Typography and About Face: Reviving the Rules of Typography) and Nick Jeeves (a graphic designer who has worked for Saatchi & Saatchi, Hatfield House, and the UK Film Council, among others).
