Course Overview

The course is designed to develop you into a rounded and capable illustrator and intellectual. This is built upon a curriculum that has your potential in mind. As such, the emphasis that will have been placed upon your work ethic, both creatively and academically, is matched with a significant focus on real-world experience. This will include building contacts and undertaking placements as well as live briefs. You will be offered support in forming your own business should you choose to do so.

You can elect to take a route through your second and final years of studies where you can engage with businesses or prepare to launch your own business upon graduating. In your final year, rather than submit a dissertation, you have the option of devising a detailed business plan.

Graduates from the programme are well placed to join design companies, work as illustrators and designers in large organisations, or set up their own businesses. Some take further training, for example, a PGCE. Some elect to take their studies further by studying at CSAD for a Masters's level qualification and there are opportunities to take this further still, through a Professional Doctorate in Design.

General Eligibility

Minimum three A levels. Grades CC to include a Science/Food/Nutrition subject.

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • Academic IELTS 6.0 overall with at least 5.5 in all elements, or equivalent.
