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. Check out the @ucaillustration Instagram page to see some of our day-to-day activities and student work-in-progress.

In Year 1 we’ll help you to develop an open-minded, flexible approach – not only to your work but also about what illustration is and could be. This will be alongside the development of essential skills in idea development, printmaking, drawing, digital software, storytelling and bookmaking. In Year 2, with additional skills workshops, the emphasis will change to give you greater freedom to develop your work more uniquely, reflecting your own interests and enthusiasms. We’ll also encourage you to be more proactive and entrepreneurial, culminating in a student-led external exhibition. In Year 3 your focus will be on the resolution of your personal approach to content and style, developing your creative skills and production to a high standard and preparing a professional portfolio. You’ll also participate in external competitions and shows, produce promotional work and develop an online presence, reflecting your ambitions for professional practice.
