Course summary

Overview

The MA Illustration course allows you to further refine your creative identity, offering a bridge between HE and professional illustration practice. It offers a great opportunity for creative professionals to return to university in order to reflect upon their creative practice and change direction.

This course can be studied full- or part-time from September or full-time from January.

Course information

MA Illustration welcomes a diverse range of design practitioners and celebrates a contemporary expansive notion of illustration. The course offers you an active and dynamic community of practice, critical discourse and debate. Students come to us from a number of educational and professional backgrounds, including illustration, graphic design, animation, fine art, modelmaking, textiles and photography, or from academic realms outside art and design.

This course is designed to appeal to students who are open and excited by a range of innovative possibilities from traditional methods such as drawing and printmaking, to virtual and time-based media. Experimenting with ideas that might culminate in publication, exhibition or new hybrid platforms, you are encouraged to re-imagine, navigate and resolve your practice. Through writing the Reflective Journals alongside studio outputs, you come to understand research and reflection as fundamental drivers for challenging creative thinking.

We encourage you to engage imaginatively with your own contexts and experiences, in order to extend your practice into new arenas. The strong emphasis on career planning enables you to carve your own niche within an evolving global market for illustration materials. Our graduates are supported in addressing the boundaries of the discipline itself through developing new visual perspectives on the world.
