Course Overview

Our Graphic Illustration and Graphic Design courses offer you control over your creative direction and career ambitions. Because we teach both degrees together, you are not tied to one study route; for instance, if you develop a passion for Graphic Design, you can transfer to the graphics pathway to study that area in much more depth. Within both courses, project briefs help you develop the creative and technical skills you need for industry while being open enough to allow you to steer your work to suit your interests. This way, you get the most out of your time with us €“ tailoring your degree, exploring your career options, and developing a personal approach to your creative process. A key feature is our small class sizes; throughout your degree, you benefit from ample contact time with our tutors and technicians and easy access to all facilities, supporting you to advance your learning and hone your applied illustration skills.
