Modules
Year one
Overview
On the two core graphic design modules, ‘Lines of Communication’ and ‘Future Perfect’, you will be introduced to a contemporary theme related to a visual communication problem, which you will then be tasked with investigating creatively. With guidance from tutors, you will be asked to define the direction and solutions, taking responsibility for the choice of media and strategy required for specific audiences, then presenting your concepts and ideas. For example, in the past, students prepared an integrated campaign designed to build awareness of digital surveillance in light of the Government’s Investigatory Powers Bill, incorporating print, social media and moving image posters.

The two additional modules will provide opportunities for you to deepen your theoretical reference points, locate your professional practice and to contextualise your learning. You will also engage with other Master’s students on Illustration and Animation and Painting, facilitating a multidisciplinary approach and giving a broader perspective to your work.
