Description

This program consists of a pathway program offered by INTO at the International Study Centre for Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU)  followed by entry into a university program offered at Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU). An International Foundation Year will help you establish the necessary English language abilities, skills and pertinent subject-specific knowledge needed to flourish in your intended academic degree. 

The International Foundation Year in Art and Design will provide you the skills and tools necessary for success in an undergraduate degree in an array of fields such as design, media, journalism and even fashion design. During your time at the Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU), you will study core subjects as well as optional subjects as media campaigns intentionally crafted for your chosen field of study. 

Graphic Design is a hands-on, ideas-driven studio-based course where you will learn a variety of approaches to visual communication. Distinctive creative personalities are nurtured and the unconventional is actively encouraged. 

After developing your creative visual language in Year 1, you will be able to apply your skills to a range of personal and industry-related projects in Year 2. Your final year will see you develop a professional portfolio that reflects your personal interests and individual career aspirations.

At all stages of the course we focus on contemporary and relevant design that embraces intellectual curiosity and design as an experience. You have the opportunity to connect with industry, either through visiting speakers, live briefs or work experience.
