We’ll consider a range of viewpoints, from the impact of history, sociology and culture to how gender and ethnicity are considered on screen and through the written word. Develop the best creative skills in the best environment to stimulate you creatively and academically.
On our project-based courses, you will work on a group project which is defined by your tutor and based on a complex real-life problem. Each course will have a theme which connects all subjects, to encourage collaboration between groups and peer feedback. In taught sessions, your tutor will equip you with the practical subject knowledge required to address the problem you have been assigned, and you will take ownership of your project during group work facilitated by teaching assistants. To learn from industry experts, you will also visit companies, innovators, and experts to immerse you in the current issues defining your subject area and the overall course theme. Your course will culminate in a group presentation to peers, staff and external experts.

"Our tutor was very interesting and passionate and the visits were linked to the subject."
I liked how we were able to make the most out of the fact that we’re in London. We visited many different places; exhibitions, companies, parts of the city, and it was always very clear how it related to the subject. It “immersed” one more in the studies and made me feel like it was worth it coming all the way here.
"Thank you for these unbelievable 4 weeks, thank you for the coolest field trips, thank you for great dinners at amazing restaurants (food is important!), thank you for ice skating in July, wonderful workshops, best tutors and counsellours ever."
London calling!
