From branding to typography, UI/UX design to print media and digital publishing, BA (Hons) Graphic Design at UCA Farnham introduces you to the many exciting avenues within the industry, with an added business focus. You’ll take part in challenging live projects, competitions and extra-curricular industry placements, so that by the time you graduate you’ll have a wealth of knowledge and experience to take forward into your career. The course will enable you to specialise in your area of interest while building a strong entrepreneurial skill set, and you’ll be encouraged to collaborate, socialise and share ideas within our unique community of creative students. Recent students have designed window displays for Benetton’s flagship stores, worked with Sky on the creation of a new TV channel and undertaken live projects for Bestival. Check out the @gdfarnham.uca Instagram to see some of our day-to-day activities and student work-in-progress.

In Year 1, you'll learn the technical and conceptual skills that will give you a solid foundation from which to explore the areas of specialist activity that exist under the broad definition of 'graphics'. With tutor guidance and tuition, you'll also investigate the design process itself, ensuring that creative outcomes are reached through a combination of experimentation and formula. The aim is to produce outcomes that have real purpose and that clearly communicate messages and meaning. In Year 2, the focus is on finding your own specialist way of working. This will include (but won't be limited to) information design, publishing and narrative, branding, typography and print media, and digital technologies. Research into the overlap and relationships between these specialist areas will be encouraged, to seek out ways of working that reflect the needs of industry whilst simultaneously exploring the outer reaches of graphic communication. In Year 3 you'll work on live international projects and competitions. You’ll also undertake self-initiated critical and practical enquiry via a dissertation and extensive final major project.
