MA Illustration: Authorial Practice

... United Kingdom
... Falmouth University

Course Overview

At the heart of this Illustration, MA is an examination of authorship and storytelling. You'll learn to see your work as an evolving practice as you challenge and re-evaluate your vision and voice with the help of experienced practitioners.

Through hands-on workshops, you'll develop skills like screen-printing, creative writing and bookbinding while working on longer-term projects in your choice of media. Taking an entrepreneurial approach, you'll build your professional practice and consider outlets for your work.

You will:

  • Join the only Illustration master's course with a specific academic focus on authorial practice

  • Mount a professional presentation of work from your negotiated project

  • Access skilled facilities, including a print room and dedicated MA studio space

  • Learn from high-profile guest speakers and industry-savvy tutors

  • Develop collaborative and public-facing print and digital publishing projects with staff and peers

  • Study over one or two years

General Eligibility

We'll also welcome your application if you have formal or 'certified' learning (such as training courses not run by universities or colleges) and learning from work experience or self-study. This is called Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) and should have been gained within the last five years and be equivalent to the learning outcomes of our minimum entry qualifications.

APL applicants using experience to apply should note a £200 application fee for entry with advanced standing or with exemption from specific modules or credit.
