Develop your own style and engage your personal creativity. Gain the benefits of an education from our University without having to move from your home country. Forge relationships and prepare yourself for the workplace.
The content of the course mirrors the Sunderland-based equivalent course Advertising and Design. Our courses delivered at study centres share the same ethos, material and approach as those delivered at Sunderland itself. The course has core practice-based modules that include developing advertising campaigns, computer skills, creative portfolios, branding and identity.
This is a hands-on course and you will be encouraged to work in pairs as this is how the industry recruits. Forging relationships during the course is great preparation for the workplace and helps to maximise creativity. The course is industry-recognised and industry-focused.
Please contact your Study Centre for more information on the delivery of this course.
Teaching is almost entirely practical and studio-based, supported by lectures, seminars and tutorials.
Our academic team encourage you to express ideas and push the boundaries of creative advertising.
Assessment is almost entirely on a continuous basis.

Creativity is the business of solving problems, and good problem solvers are also sought after in a much wider range of careers. There has probably never been so much opportunity for young people with ideas.
Our graduates have gone on to work in top advertising agencies around the world, including Weiden + Kennedy, Inferno, Glue, Rapp, and Iris Worldwide in London, as well as JWT and Y&R in Singapore and Athens, and DDB Tribal in Finland.
Your course will put you on a fast track to a rewarding career in advertising and design.
During your final year you will develop a Professional Engagement Document. This highlights all your self-development activities and engagement with industry, as well as other factors that give you an edge compared to other graduates.
