It encourages the development of concepts, research, experimentation, analysis and critical awareness in aspiring designers. The programme provides a fully rounded experience in graphic design while allowing specialization in the areas of branding, publishing or image-making.

DURATION

SYLLABUS

This three-year programme is divided into three terms and totals 360 academic credits. In each term, the students would have to complete all of the modules to proceed to the next level.

The programme will be a combination of tutorial guidance, project ‘crits’, lectures, workshops, competitions, live industrial projects and placements. Subjects cover a range of graphic design fields, and provide a look into theoretical, historical, and cultural contexts. Professional development helps students gain a firm footing as they establish themselves as designers, and exposure to national and international competitions provide both a taste of industry experience prior to graduation, and an opportunity to work with peers from around the world.
