This is a practical postgraduate course in Illustration, grounded in professional development and research. You’ll produce illustration projects in a collaborative and creative environment, working with and alongside students of Design, Visual Communication, Graphics, Textiles, as well as Photography and other Fine Art specialisms.
You’ll build a strong professional context for your practice and receive excellent academic and technical support from specialist practitioners, technical demonstrators, designers, researchers, theorists, professors and lecturers.
On successful completion of the course, your increased confidence and abilities will be clearly evident in the portfolio you’ve developed and you'll be ready to move into industry, or to continue to further study.
You’ll need a good undergraduate degree in a design, visual communication or art specialism, or its equivalent in terms of learning or experience, and a good working knowledge of design, visual communication or art contexts.
