What can you expect?

• We offer a broad and interdisciplinary approach in an era with unparalleled opportunities for skilled visual communicators. Through deep enquiry and an awareness of wider social, cultural and political contexts, you’ll consider the role of the illustrator and image-maker, and be encouraged to question, validate and redefine the discipline both responsively and inventively.
• You’ll cultivate an understanding of contemporary creative practice, critical debate and academic responsibility through a programme of studio practice, seminars, lectures, workshops, tutorial support and peer-learning opportunities.
• This course fuses methodologies of graphic awareness, critical illustrative practices, visual thinking, authorship and emergent technologies. You’ll be given intellectual and creative space to examine and challenge existing definitions of ‘the image’ in contemporary visual culture alongside illustration and its impact, including consumption and production.
• You’ll be encouraged to cultivate your own independent vision, and to approach work with curiosity, intellect and practical rigour. You’ll harness traditional, digital and time-based mediums through a diverse range of studio-based projects where you'll develop your practice and confidently build transferable skills.

Our strong, vibrant and supportive studio culture emphasises experimentation, investigation, imagination and invention, and we respond to problems in new and sustainable ways. You’ll be taught by staff who are successful professionals in a range of creative fields, each with an area of specialist research and practice that feeds directly into our stimulating learning environment.
