Duration

This Level 3 programme is designed to develop technical skills while encouraging individual and creative thinking. The course provides an introduction to all aspects of graphic design including advertising, logos, promotional and informational literature, packaging, moving image, display and illustration.
The first year is skills-based as the students develop their knowledge mainly through practical work. You will learn how to use industry standard graphics software (including PhotoShop, Illustrator, InDesign and Flash).
During the second year, students develop a highly personalised portfolio through negotiated assignment briefs. The second year asks for a more individual and independent approach and culminates in a self-directed project which is shown as part of the end of the course exhibition.
A choice of shorter programmes at Level 3 are available to successful candidates....
