Overview

Throughout the programme, students are encouraged to challenge current design practices and styles in order to develop their own personal approach to design informed by and responding to the latest ideas. From the outset of the programme, students develop an online portfolio that allows them to demonstrate and challenge their creative ability as a means to chart their progress throughout their studies.

Programme structure

In Year 1, students share a common programme of study with BSc Digital Media Development – this is a parallel programme that goes further into the application of technology in the production of digital media artefacts. The core theme of Year 1 is based around the design and development of websites, apps, games and the principles of interactivity. In Year 2, students develop practice in the following areas: web and interactive media design, animation and game design, and design for portable media.

Although there are many crossover points, this focus enables students to explore a particular design ideology whilst building their confidence and expertise in a more defined area of practice. Students in Year 3 continue in their specialist area whilst being given the opportunity to study tailor-made projects. There is also the opportunity to study business practice within the creative digital media industry.
