What the college says

Graphic Design is an excellent choice if you have a vivid interest in visual communication, the art of conveying an idea with word and imagery for a commercial purpose. The course enables you to explore aspects of graphic design such as illustration, typography and advertising through a varied approach of media. Throughout the course, you are encouraged to combine traditional hand rendered methods painting and printmaking with digital methods such as Photoshop. We offer an imaginative course with considerable opportunities to experiment with media and creative design work, where you will work with a variety of materials, techniques and processes in order to express and answer a visual problem with imagination. The course demands a strong work ethic and independent commitment. If you achieved well and enjoyed Art & Design at school this could be the course for you. Graphic Design is often studied alongside related courses such as Fine Art and Photography, but can also serve as a complementary study route, offering an element of variety to an intense academic programme.
