Course Description

DOES EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS IN THE PROSPECTUS!

Our Advertising degree is a multiaward winning course dedicated to achieving excellent creative results. It’s an essential training ground for anyone seeking a career on the creative side of advertising and offers students an exciting mix of practical and theoretical study in the our contemporary studios.

As an advertising student you’ll work as part of a ‘creative team’, working as an art director or conceptual copywriter, developing strategies and campaigns for innovative press, direct mail, ambient, online, radio and television advertising.

Our course provides you with a complete introduction to advertising forms, systems and practices. You’ll gain specific insights into creative art direction and effective copywriting from practising creative directors.

You’ll also benefit from our productive links with top regional and London agencies, including Lowe, Mother, Abbott Mead Vickers, BBDO and Ogilvy & Mather. Many of these agencies provide excellent work placement opportunities as well as motivational visiting speakers.
