Illustration (with Integrated Foundation Year and Professional Practice Year)
Course Summary
BA (Hons) Illustration (with Integrated Foundation Year and Professional Practice Year) is a five year degree programme, including a foundation year to help develop your creativity before you embark on year one of a degree. Your fourth academic year would then include a year in industry placement.
We believe the best illustration is based on exciting, original ideas. UCA Farnham’s renowned BA (Hons) Illustration degree course will help you achieve just that - through drawing, text, sequential design, book production, moving image and more.
As well as a wealth of fundamental skills, you’ll develop a personal style and learn business and self-promotion skills to help you build a career as soon as you graduate.
You’ll be taught through studio-based projects, workshops and a lively programme of visiting speakers, skills-based workshops, pop-up exhibitions and external visits. There’s also a wealth of exceptional facilities to take advantage of, including printmaking, ceramics, digital printing, textiles and 3D printing.
The course benefits from a wide range of industry links with partners including the Association of Illustrators, Ambit Magazine and the V&A.
