The MA in Communication Design encourages you to research, discover, initiate, test and communicate your ideas within professional and real-world contexts. You will develop your own unique design voice by questioning what communication design is and what communication design could be, delving into contemporary communication design issues like sustainability, new technology, inclusivity, and ethics. As a practice-based, forward-thinking collaborative course that pushes the boundaries of communication design you will explore the contribution responsible design practice can make to the rapidly changing needs of contemporary society.The course emphasises independent and self-directed study, guided by subject-specialist tutors through tutorials, workshops, and lectures. You will develop practical skills in areas like illustration, typography, and narrative storytelling, as well as digital media practice and theory. The course also includes cross-discipline collaborative projects, fostering teamwork and industry engagement. Regular studio visits, guest lectures, and participation in design competitions like the D&AD New Blood Awards will enhance your exposure to industry practices, preparing you for an innovative and exciting career in an ever-changing industry.
