University of Greenwich School of Design: Book 2022

BA (Hons) Graphic + Digital Design OUR GRAPHIC AND DIGITAL DESIGN programmes balance active research investigation, practical experimentation and critical thinking to prepare students for careers in the creative industries. Students develop excellent communication skills, control of creative practices within Graphic Design, as well as in fields close to their discipline — spatial design, fine arts, animation.

Guided by our expert teams of academic researchers, practitioners and makers, students explore areas such as typography, visual grammar, data visualisation, narrative, branding, advertising, fine art practices, photography, motion graphics and moving image. Through a blend of lectures, studio-based workshops, technical tutorials and industry events we invite students to develop their knowledge and experience of design theory and practice.

Popular career options for our Graphic and Digital Design graduates include roles in creative teams and agencies, particularly those specialising in print, publishing, packaging, branding and interaction design, as well as those focused on animation and moving image.

During their time with us, students develop an appreciation of design as an area of intellectual investigation, critical thinking, creative visualisation and making — explored through active engagement and professional practice.
