Course programme
94% of Graphic Design graduates were in employment or further study six months after completing their studies 2013-14 DLHE You will learn the foundations of good graphic design through workshops, demonstrations, practical tasks and collaborative working in a supportive studio environment. From day one we regard you as a designer with thoughts, opinions and a meaningful contribution whilst developing your own portfolio of work and individual sketchbooks. The emphasis of the course is on process, building creative confidence, technical skills and critical understanding of what constitutes graphic design. The programme is designed for those with an active interest in graphic design but who may not necessarily have studied it in the past. Working alongside students from the web design course you will produce a wide range of projects. By giving you the opportunity to collaborate, encouraging individual and creative responses, and recognising the opportunities that this way of working offers, you will be fully prepared to enter the contemporary design industry. You will be able to not only speak the language of design, but understand how your unique creative practice fits into this mix. Top reason to choose this course Unlike other design degree courses graphic design aims to prepare students for challenging work in the creative sector focusing on process, creative thinking and versatility. The course is structured to develop your ability to respond to challenging, complex and often ambiguous design problems, utilising appropriate research and synthesis abilities, placing more autonomy on the student through each progressing year. This key idea enables the student to develop confidence in their own abilities, whilst preparing them for the chosen industries in which they go on to seek employment. “I’ve worked on a variety of different projects, such as a branding project for Pink Floyd, as they are leaving their record label and require a logo for it. Another notable large project was for Tottenham Hotspur, with two briefs: (1) for Europa League ticket sales and (2) their junior membership scheme awareness. Both the Spurs and Pink Floyd projects started with idea generation and concept meetings, then client meetings, designing and art working. I came away with a couple of portfolio pieces, a knowledge of how to work in a medium sized, but tight studio (35). Learning not only to work with other designers, but directors, copywriters, developers and artworks. And some massive clients to put on my CV. My overall experience was amazing. I got on well and friendly with everyone, and felt like I became a part of the studio. Able to have fun, but challenge myself”. Tyler Ayers Graduated 2015
