**Why an Integrated Foundation Stage?**
An Integrated Foundation Stage starts your degree studies with a year spent learning the skills required to progress to a full honours degree. Alongside an introduction to Creative Advertising, you'll develop valuable study skills, communication, team work and problem-solving techniques which help to build your confidence and prepare you for the rest of your course.
**Why Creative Advertising?**
Our Creative Advertising degree equips you with the skills to successfully develop campaigns across digital, social, TV and print media, along with professional contacts to help launch your career. You’ll develop skills in art direction, copywriting, photography, design and moving image, as well as a strong understanding of the importance of brand identity and innovation in the market. With opportunities to work on live briefs, gain experience and pitch ideas to top agencies such as McCann, Ogilvy & Mather, Publicis and Saatchi & Saatchi, our graduates stand out from the competition. There’s also the chance to showcase work and make key industry contacts at D&AD’s New Blood exhibition, London (additional costs may apply, see course web page for details).
You’ll draw on the expertise of accomplished lecturers, with experience of working for global brands such as Nike, Disney, LEGO and Superdry. You’ll even have the chance to gain recognition for your work and follow in the footsteps of previous students who have won international awards, such as YCN Professional Awards, the Gold Award at the Roses Awards, Chip Shop Awards, the Shelf Awards, Creative Conscience Awards and the DMA Breakthrough Award. Our new Design Centre, complete with a dedicated advertising studio and boardroom, offers a special collaborative, creative environment where innovation and talent can develop and thrive. You’ll also benefit from state-of-the-art facilities and industry-standard Adobe CC software.
