Kingston University London

The role of the graphic designer is expanding constantly as visual communication needs become increasingly demanding. This course will enable you to meet these demands by helping you to develop your ability to think strategically and create clear, meaningful and appropriate work. It will encourage you to become open and sensitive to changing cultural, social and political climates, and, while seeing the big picture, demand perfection in the detail.

What will you study?

You will work on a number of challenging, experimental projects using a wide range of media to develop your intellectual aesthetic considerations and your technical understanding. Projects are often run with other students and professionals, such as musicians, scientists, product designers and architects, as a way of offering an opportunity to explore and develop dynamic and innovative communication.

The business and social context of communication design is covered in two series of six-week seminars. Your masters project will culminate in a gallery assessment show, which will include your professional portfolio of supporting work.
