BA (Hons) Graphic Design and Illustration (Visual Communication)
Studying on BA (Hons) Graphic Design and Illustration you will have freedom to explore both Graphic Design and Illustration without the stigma of working between or within subjects, allowing you to bridge between the two subjects and go on to develop a practice that blurs the line between the two — a key characteristic that has become more common in industry. You will be able to develop an original, individual approach to creating graphic design and illustration, coupled with a thorough understanding of the social, cultural and professional context occupied by graphic design and illustration.Having skills in both areas (feet in both camps) allows a more adaptable approach to taking on work and being successful, chiming with the requirements of the Creative Industries 4.0, where discipline distinctions become increasingly irrelevant to professional life.Towards the end of the course, in final year, the course will allow you to gravitate towards one or other on the named subjects as your creative voice emerge. It’s this that flexibility which is the underlining selling point of this course.
