Designers need first-class creative and analytical skills in order to pursue the opportunities that today’s multidisciplinary communication environment provides.

The MA Communication Design course supports students to develop extensive expertise and a clear, incisive and confident approach that will enable them to meet the needs of evolving cultural networks.

The course encourages experimentation and risk-taking; embracing problem setting over and above problem solving, while maintaining strong links with contemporary professional practice.

Situated in Central London, MA Communication Design is the largest postgraduate design course in Britain. It has 120 students from around the world who study together over a two year programme.

During this inspiring time, students develop mature, creative, analytical work in one of four disciplines: digital media; graphic design; illustration and photography. The course aims to provide a supportive, challenging and rewarding experience for the best designers, illustrators and photographers of their generation.

In our think-tank atmosphere students engage in lively debate, challenging and redefining their individual subject areas. Research and seminars will provide a social context for experimentation and professional practice. Collaborative cross-discipline projects, peer learning, tutorials, seminars and crits, are some of diverse ways that students develop their expertise.

MA Communication Design offers you the opportunity of personal development through an individually devised project within the supportive structure of a nationally renowned programme, and the broader context of a world famous college, Central Saint Martins.
