A two-year Foundation Degree influenced by, and a product of, the emerging practices and technologies of the Digital Design & Arts Industries.
In Partnership with Falmouth University, this multi-disciplined course fosters collaboration and experimentation, fusing traditional and digital media to shape new forms of communication.
The course is designed to enable you to acquire new and emerging digital media skills. You will be based in a collaborative digital media studio; a place to share and formulate emerging ideas and application of traditional and future technologies. Highly motivated staff, with a passion to support innovative learning, will encourage risk taking and experimentation at all stages of the creative process, and support the application of skills to new and emerging markets and contexts.
