Playfully creative. Experimental. Commercially relevant. These are all ways to describe our exciting BA (Hons) Illustration degree course at UCA Farnham.This course has a strong sense of purpose – we want you to test what the language of illustration means to today’s audiences, make (and learn from) mistakes, research and generate ideas, and learn how to be entrepreneurial. By placing experimentation and play at the forefront of what you'll do, you'll be challenged to take risks with your work, try new ways of working and be adventurous.You'll get to work on exciting projects that are a combination of client-focused live briefs and external competitions with partners, such as leading restaurant chains, hotels, magazines and local and multinational businesses. You'll also be given the opportunity to present your portfolio to illustration agencies, design houses, and art directors. Everything on this course is practice-based, with theory, context, and research all ploughed into the studio where you’ll create your work. And you’ll be part of an amazing community, where staff – who are all practising illustrators and artists – will push you to be the best you can possibly be.Related courses- BA (Hons) Animation (with Integrated Foundation Year)- BA (Hons) Comic & Concept Art (with Integrated Foundation Year)- BA (Hons) Graphic Design (with Integrated Foundation Year)- BA (Hons) Visual Communications (with Integrated Foundation Year)
