The MA in Illustration and Visual Media delves into image creation and contextualization during an era of unprecedented opportunities for visual culture engagement. This program offers a critical environment where conventional notions of illustration can be examined, dismantled, and reimagined, equipping graduates with a distinctive foundation for professional artistic careers.

What sets this MA apart is its focus on students cultivating their own creative portfolios. We view illustration not as an isolated practice or rigid discipline, but rather as one of numerous platforms where images can thrive in today's digital and physical landscapes.

By engaging in experimental, practice-based research, you'll cultivate an autonomous and analytical approach to contemporary imagery, with opportunities to explore diverse visual media formats.

Duration: 1 year 3 months full-time (45 weeks structured across four terms)
