Course summary
Ignite your passion for exploring visual ideas and brand communication from real-world problems to commercial briefs, across print and digital.
Our BA (Hons) Graphic Communication is a cutting-edge brand communications degree that will equip you with the skills to design everything from visual identities and advertising campaigns to websites, apps, motion, film and animation. Typography, copywriting, imagery, motion, digital and print applications are all integral components of the programme.
Ignite your passion for exploring visual identities, brand communications and advertising, working across across digital, motion and print. The course is closely aligned to the industry, and you will work on a wide variety of briefs set by staff, professional design agencies and external competitions.
Thanks to our strong links to industry, recent graduates are highly employable and have found full-time employment in leading design studios, working in areas such as branding and digital, motion and cross-platform advertising.
Your original ideas are as likely to play out through an app, website or augmented reality experience as a printed poster, pamphlet or journal. Your knowledge and skills will grow in branding, identity, advertising, motion graphics, and interaction/UX design whilst developing strong skills in creative thinking and ideas-led communication solutions. Youll be challenged to engage with real-world problems, controversies and commercial briefs through research, design and technology.
