Our subject-specific librarians will be on hand to direct you to the specialist learning and study-skill resources. Youll also be assigned an academic advisor to give you tailored feedback and support.

Career Prospects

You will graduate with the skills to work in a variety of sectors including the creative arts and design industries. Your creativity and ability to respond to a brief will enable you to work for a range of employers including marketing agencies, publishers and animation studios.
